Otel APM Span index naming suffix

[igorpaytrack]

How can I set the index name with a suffix of date, like fluentbit or any other logging ingestion pipeline can do?

Today, my indexes are named like otel-v1-apm-span-001167

I wanted to use something like otel-v1-apm-span-%{yyyy.MM.dd}

Hi,

thanks for reaching out. Data Prepper does not generate indices by date for spans. It creates new indices by a size policy. You can switch the index_type to custom and provide a different naming scheme with index. With this approach, you need to also specify the template_file. You should be able to use the default from Data Prepper.
