Pods ELK link (double quotes are missing and pod.name should be pod_name):

current string search docker.container.id = fd225deacbf17c984ed4c115a1a9203747b1cb263300a2c6f301c554285920bd

    Hello Sumit,

    Thanks for bringing this idea to our attention. As you described, the integration with ELK does work as expected when the ELK stack is present. Replacing one of the components means a different stack to support.

    We will come back to this idea in the near future.
