"UTF-8"
The character encoding used in this input. Examples include UTF-8
and cp1252
This setting is useful if your log files are in Latin-1
(aka cp1252
)or in another character set other than UTF-8
.
This only affects "plain" format logs since json is UTF-8
already.
Set the desired text format for encoding.
