Dec 1, 2025

December 2025 — Graylog2/graylog2-server: Delivered two clear-value additions to improve user workflow and data processing, plus a bug fix that hardens event condition handling. Key enhancements include (1) Event Definitions UI: updated the link to direct users to the summary view (not the edit page) and introduced a new pipeline function rename_fields to bulk rename message fields in the processing pipeline; (2) Reliability and correctness: removed references to unsupported event definition condition types in EventConditionForm to ensure only valid conditions are utilized. These changes reduce misconfigurations, streamline incident analysis, and enable bulk message-field operations at scale.
