Messages are constructed from the "Message ___" properties of the processor which can use expression language to generate messages from incoming FlowFiles. The properties are used to construct messages of the form: (<PRIORITY>)(VERSION )(TIMESTAMP) (HOSTNAME) (BODY) where version is optional. The constructed messages are checked against regular expressions for RFC5424 and RFC3164 formatted messages. The timestamp can be an RFC5424 timestamp with a format of "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SZ" or "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.S+hh:mm", or it can be an RFC3164 timestamp with a format of "MMM d HH:mm:ss". If a message is constructed that does not form a valid Syslog message according to the above description, then it is routed to the invalid relationship. Valid messages are sent to the Syslog server and successes are routed to the success relationship, failures routed to the failure relationship.</p><h3>Tags: </h3><p>syslog, put, udp, tcp, logs</p><h3>Properties: </h3><p>In the list below, the names of required properties appear in <strong>bold</strong>.
