Parse Operation

Parse operations split event properties into additional properties using regular expression subgroups. For example, if an event source groups the old and new severity of a metric into one property, you can parse the severities into separate properties to make the information easier to understand.

Parse operations support inheritance, so you can parse operations that were created by parsing operations in higher levels. The framework traverses all parsing operation field elements in order from top to bottom until all field elements are processed. Matches are recorded and processed.
