How do I prevent the double underscore internal Cribl fields from being inserted into the _raw?


I'm trying to serialize into JSON and just keep the _raw field left over after bringing all the fields together. How do I prevent the double underscore internal Cribl fields from being inserted into the _raw field I'm creating?

It didn't seem to work within the serializing function. I had to add an eval before the serialize and explicitly remove all double underscore fields that way


Kind of annoying


Since I'm not seeing them until I forward them to Splunk. They don't show up in my previews of my log samples

in the fields to serialize field:`!* !cribl* *`


I see now. I had the wildcard first but you need to put all excludes first.
