drop_on_error
DEPRECATED
This component is deprecated and will be removed in the next major version release. Please consider moving onto alternative components.
Attempts to write messages to a child output and if the write fails for any reason the message is dropped instead of being reattempted.
# Config fields, showing default valuesoutput:label: ""drop_on_error: {}
Alternatives​
This output has been replaced with the more explicit and configurable drop_on
output.
This output can be combined with a child retry
output in order to set an explicit number of retry attempts before dropping a
message.
For example, the following configuration attempts to send to a hypothetical
output type foo
three times, but if all three attempts fail the
message is dropped entirely:
output:drop_on_error:retry:max_retries: 2output:type: foo
