| listen_port* | int | | Port to listen on. |
| listen_ip | string | "0.0.0.0" | IP Address to listen on. |
| log_type | string | udp | Arbitrary for attribute 'log_type'. Useful for filtering between many udp sources. |
| parse_format | enum | none | Method to use when parsing. Valid values are none, json, and regex. When regex is selected, 'Regex Pattern' must be set. |
| regex_pattern | string | | The regex pattern used when parsing log entries. |
| multiline_line_start_pattern | string | | Regex pattern that matches the beginning of a log entry, for handling multiline logs. |
| multiline_line_end_pattern | string | | Regex pattern that matches the end of a log entry, useful for terminating parsing of multiline logs. |
| parse_timestamp | bool | false | Whether to parse the timestamp from the log entry. |
| timestamp_field | string | timestamp | The field containing the timestamp in the log entry. |
| parse_timestamp_format | enum | ISO8601 | The format of the timestamp in the log entry. Choose a common format, or specify a custom format. Options include "ISO8601", "RFC3339", "Epoch", and "Manual". |
| epoch_timestamp_format | enum | s | The layout of the epoch-based timestamp. Required when parse_timestamp_format is set to "Epoch".. Options include "s", "ms", "us", "ns", "s.ms", "s.us", "s.ns". |
| manual_timestamp_format | string | '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f%z' | The strptime layout of the timestamp. Used when parse_timestamp_format is set to "Manual". |
| timezone | timezone | UTC | The timezone to use if the Timestamp Format doesn't include a timezone. Otherwise, the timezone in the Timestamp Format will be respected. NOTE: This is also required to parse timezone abbreviations, due to their ambiguity. |
| parse_severity | bool | false | Whether to parse severity from the log entry. |
| severity_field | string | severity | The field containing the severity in the log entry. |
