[Automatic Import] Tell the user about the log formats we support #196039

Open ilyannn opened 1 day ago

ilyannn commented 1 day ago

Context

Previously we had a message as a second line in the file upload box about only supporting the JSON/NDJSON format:

Image

Owing to the maturity of log formats available now, with support for structured and unstructured logs previously implemented, we removed this verbiage in https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/194386 (the CSV format support PR) targeting 8.16.

Action Item

Provide a new message to tell the user about the formats we support on the upload screen as well as in the error that is shown for unsupported formats ('Unsupported log format in the samples.').

It could be a link to the docs as well.

Notes

The format support depends on the version – CSV support and wording removal were not backported to 8.15.x.

Design
