Custom solution for default fields

anuj08_jain — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 08:34:45 GMT

Hello Team,

I am trying to setup new Dynatrace Env. and I would like to use my custom fields payload instead of content.

So, whenever I ingest the data my logs should be shown in payload and I dont want to use content as a fields.

Is there any way to implement this?

@anuj08_jain If your requirement is to display a different field name instead of default when querying , you can try something like below

fetch logs | filter matchesValue(dt.system.bucket, "XYZ") | fieldsRename Payload = content

Alternative way would be to use the OpenPipeline processors to rename fields
