Yes, any header works using that same notation. I use it to allow us to bucket
many event 'types' with a single channel.
for example, a path with custom headers and Hive ready partition folders:
/flumelogs/%{someHeader}/%{someOtherHeader}/datekey=%Y%m%d/hour=%H
Hope that helps,

Subject: HDFS custom escape sequence
Is it possible to use other headers besides the host header, %{host} escape
sequence, to name the HDFS files? We are interested in attaching a category
header and want the events stored separately.
If not possible, is there a best practice for achieving this?
Thanks,
Roy
