Hello,

We have turned on the cribl internal metrics source and are receiving all the metrics data in Splunk via HEC. The only metric we are not receiving is cribl.logstream.sourcetype.in_bytes. We are receiving out_bytes.

Does anyone know the reason for this?

Thank you

Are you setting the Sourcetype in a Pipeline? If the data does not have a Sourcetype as its coming into Stream we cannot get the sourcetype.in_bytes.

Hello, we are setting the sourcetype in the source configuration:

Source → Configure → Processing Settings → Fields

Should we move it to the pipeline instead?

Thank you
