Hi all,I'm having a hard time get Redis running on my Cribl Workers and I don't know what the issue is.What I've done so far:1. Setup a Redis Server in Docker (Standalone)2. Set Up a pipeline as demonstarted in https://docs.cribl.io/stream/redis-function/#scenario-a|Docs3. Setup Redis URL `redis://<password>@&lt;host>:<port>`4. Authentication: None 5. Tested the connection from my cribl worker via `redis-cli` from which I was able to write and retrive Keys from the Redis-ServerBasically, my question is: Why doesn't it work using Cribl?Any ideas on that?Cheers :zebra_face:

if your Redis endpoint is encrypted you may need to use rediss (double S)

<@U01AWTNNHQB&gt; you mean:Setup Redis URL `rediss://<password>@&lt;host>:<port>`If so, it is still not working.

Can you share a screenshot of your redis function in Cribl?

Yep, rediss:// is necessary for encrypted endpoints, you can think of it as http(s). We use redis<s://fqdn:port|s://fqdn:port> and add the credentials under Authentication Method as manual.

  1. Is the Redis URL quoted`'redis://<password>@&lt;host>:<port>'`
  1. Is the Key quoted?

Just an example

First Screenshot shows settings, the second one that there is data on the server.Tried both, with quoted and unquoted URL.

I just set and get

Do you have any special characters in the password? Colons, percents, etc?

Still not working...Getting an Error, if I check the logs nothing of interesst appears in there, just the two rows you can see in the screenshot

Basically would this regex fail? `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+`

<@U01LSBF5953&gt; no special characters. You're regex would catch

Can you share more about this Docker setup? How are you handling exposing the port?

Think that is not the issue, as I retrieve data from the Redis-Server when using the `redis-cli -h <redis-server-ip> -p 6379` command and `get <key>` from cribl worker.Or do you think that still could be an issue?

No, that's a good sign.

Although I couldn't find any information about this, but are there maybe other requirements, such as packages, libraries I need to install on the OS?

Hold on... you can't put your password in the URL like that.

You need to use "Manual" authentication and enter it into the password box.

Like so:

Additionally, do you require a password using the `redis-cli` by specifying the `-a <password>` flag?

If not, I don't think you require any authentication at all.

In regards to the docs, I can set the password in the URL (see screenshot).For `redis-cli` before quering any data I use `AUTH <password>` but I dont need a password in order to execute this one successfully `redis-cli -h <redis-server-ip> -p 6379`

Cool. Try taking the password out of the URL and entering it under Manual auth

Doesn't work either. I tried without an entry in Username and with `default` as the Username
