Feedback

Per the promtail doc, we have a collection of labels that can be added to the log entries, however there is no clear instruction on how to preserve the structured data and pass it through a relabeling stage. Link to google [doc] (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MeD6QhFvbJucgX_7Y65nJHJw2P9Qei4BlsOiQObJxO0/edit?usp=sharing) with additional comments related to the specific instructions.
