Category	Scope
Parsing	record

The “date” pipeline processor: parse a timestamp from a field of the current record into the record’s canonical Timestamp (OTel: the time the event occurred, source clock).

Configuration #

Field	Type	Description
`field`	string	Source field to read from.
`formats`	liststring	Timestamp layouts tried in order.
`timezone`	string	Timezone assumed when parsing or rendering.
`ignore_missing`	bool	Do not fail when the source field is missing.
`ignore_failure`	bool	Do not fail the record when processing errors; the record passes through unchanged.
`tag`	string	Tag appended to the record when processing fails.
