Hi Samuel,

Graylog currently only supports flat message structures, i. e. not nested 
objects and no lists.

This being said, there's a JSON extractor which can map JSON structures 
into flat message fields, see 
http://docs.graylog.org/en/1.3/pages/extractors.html#using-the-json-extractor 
for details.


Has this been an issue for people in real-world use?


At least for the Graylog users I know, this hasn't been an issue in the 
real-world. I'm sure it's nice to have, but it also increases complexity 
while processing and when writing queries, so I'm not sure that it's 
actually worth implementing this feature.


Cheers,
Jochen
