Is there a way we can add our own edge node info? We'd like to add some metadata that we can use for our mappings

absolutely
see here: https://docs.cribl.io/edge/setting-up-leader-and-edge-nodes#using-yaml-config-file-1
can add tags or even `CRIBL_*` environment variables


you are my savior

Thank you!


What would the syntax be if you want to add a key=value pair?
CRIBL_DIST_MASTER_URL – URL of the Leader Node. Format: <tls|tcp>://<authToken>@host:port?group=defaultGroup&tag=tag1&tag=tag2&tls.<tls-settings below>
Would you just replace tag with the key or is the tag parameter required?


…and then use mapping as here: https://docs.cribl.io/edge/fleets/#mapping


yeah, tag is required

i don't think we accept arbitrary kv in this case. can def try but i don't believe we do


ahhh okay. Thank you for clarifying

Last question, do you know how to add tags in the msi install? https://docs.cribl.io/edge/deploy-windows


great question


Looks like I just need to add -t

Ill probably put in a feature request so we can pass key/value pairs. Just passing values works but the data doesn't have any context


can't do it with tag only?


The new MSI for 4.1 adds support for setting tags
