Default value is
"UTF-8"
The character encoding used in this codec. Examples include "UTF-8" and "CP1252".
JSON requires valid UTF-8 strings, but in some cases, software that
emits JSON does so in another encoding (nxlog, for example). In
weird cases like this, you can set the charset
setting to the
actual encoding of the text and Logstash will convert it for you.
For nxlog users, you’ll want to set this to "CP1252".
