Abstract

A data intake and query system receives raw machine via an internet protocol (IP) such as the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP). The system has configurable global settings for the received raw machine data that determine properties such as the metadata that is associated with raw machine data. Each event is associated with a token, which is also configurable and provides settings such as metadata settings for the raw machine data. The raw machine data is stored as events based on the metadata. Electronic devices that generate raw machine data may transmit the raw machine data to the data intake and query system within HTTP messages. The HTTP messages may also include settings such as metadata for the raw machine data. The raw machine data is stored as events based on the global metadata settings, token metadata settings, and HTTP message metadata settings.
