             Summary: JSONLayout ability to rename keys in log output - particularly locationInfo "source"
                 Key: LOG4J2-2139
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2139
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Layouts
            Reporter: Daniel Kirkdorffer
            Priority: Minor


We ran into a problem when setting {{locationInfo}} to {{true}} when ingesting logs into Kibana.  The problem had to do with a conflict with another existing key named {{"source"}} of type String, and the fact that {{locationInfo}} produces an Object called "source".

So it would be nice to have a way to supply a different Object name.  Perhaps this could be broadened so that other key names could also be renamed?

Maybe there is a way to do this already?
