[Ingest Pipelines] Improve UX for processor textbox fields #186659

Open alisonelizabeth opened 1 week ago

alisonelizabeth commented 1 week ago

In some processors there is a textbox to input data. It would be nice if that textbox is just a normal textbox and the user doesn’t need to care about JSON escaping. As a user I might just write this: \\ to replace home\user with a - e.g: This will save just fine in the UI but you end up writing \\ for a single \ to replace it because you need to escape the escaping backslash.

This is applicable for the gsub and grok processors (maybe others).
