Thread: Redacting params in PostgreSQL logs
I have a project of sending postgres logs to ELK stack. It is working fine.
Now there are concerns that logs have query statements with parameters.
and then GDPR and other PII issues.
Is there a way I can redact the params in statements in the logs by some config or extension ?
Pls note: I want the statements in logs but not the values :)
like insert into foo values (‘xxx’) etc
Regards,
Vijay
OK found this :)
