Can http sink send single events

[poehlerflorian]

Question

We are trying to use (or rather misuse) vector as a simple http proxy that redacts some fields with sensitive data from the json payload. The batch mechanism of vector however sends the events wrapped in an array, even with batch.max_events=1.

Can this be configured somehow to only send a single event?

E.g. instead of sending

[
  {
    <payload>
  }
]

just send

{
  <payload>
}

    decoding:
      codec: json
transforms:
  payload_modifier:
    inputs:
      - http_input
    type: remap
    file: ${VECTOR_CONFIG_DIR}/sanitize.vrl # Simple redaction of various fields

sinks:
  http_output:
    inputs:
      - payload_modifier
    type: http
    uri: <grafana-url>
