## Quick start
23+
24+
This Helm chart deploys the log receiver agent as a StatefulSet or Deployment (configurable via values in the chart).
25+
It receives logs using [supported protocols](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/data-ingestion/)
26+
(for example: syslog, Elasticsearch, OpenTelemetry) from cluster workloads and forwards them to the configured VictoriaLogs destinations.
27+
If more than one destination is specified, collected logs are replicated to all configured destinations.
28+
29+
- To quickly install single-node version of VictoriaLogs and `victoria-logs-agent`, see [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/helm/victoria-logs-single/#quick-start).
30+
- To start with a VictoriaLogs cluster and `victoria-logs-agent`, see [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/helm/victoria-logs-cluster/#quick-start).
31+
32+
## Chart configuration
33+
34+
The simplest working configuration includes specifying the `remoteWrite` array and setting CPU and memory resources for the chart.
35+
36+
Example of a minimal working configuration:
37+
38+
```yaml
39+
remoteWrite:
40+
- url: http://victoria-logs:9428
41+
42+
resources:
43+
limits:
44+
cpu: 100m
45+
memory: 128Mi
46+
requests:
47+
cpu: 100m
48+
memory: 128Mi
49+
```
50+
51+
If multiple `remoteWrite` entries are defined, logs are replicated to all the specified destinations.
52+
53+
### Basic auth
54+
55+
If you need to use basic auth, define the secrets via environment variables and fill out the `basicAuth` object as shown below:
56+
57+
```yaml
58+
remoteWrite:
59+
- url: http://victoria-logs:9428
60+
basicAuth:
61+
passwordEnvKey: 'VL_PASSWORD'
62+
usernameEnvKey: 'VL_USERNAME'
63+
64+
env:
65+
- name: VL_PASSWORD
66+
valueFrom:
67+
secretKeyRef:
68+
name: auth-secret
69+
key: VL_PASSWORD
70+
- name: VL_USERNAME
71+
valueFrom:
72+
secretKeyRef:
73+
name: auth-secret
74+
key: VL_USERNAME
75+
```
76+
77+
### Multitenancy
78+
79+
To define [tenant](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/#multitenancy), use `projectID` and `accountID` as shown below:
80+
81+
```yaml
82+
remoteWrite:
83+
- url: http://localhost:9428
84+
projectID: 12
85+
accountID: 42
86+
```
87+
88+
### TLS
89+
90+
To enable TLS verification for the remoteWrite target, you can specify the `tls` block inside each remoteWrite entry.
91+
92+
At a minimum, you should provide the `caFile` path so that the agent can verify the server's TLS certificate.
93+
This is useful when the target endpoint uses a certificate signed by a custom or self-signed Certificate Authority (CA).
94+
95+
```yaml
96+
remoteWrite:
97+
- url: https://victoria-logs:9428
98+
tls:
99+
caFile: "/etc/tls/ca.crt"
100+
101+
extraVolumes:
102+
- name: tls-certs
103+
secret:
104+
secretName: tls-secret
105+
106+
extraVolumeMounts:
107+
- name: tls-certs
108+
mountPath: /etc/tls
109+
readOnly: true
110+
```
111+
112+
If you want to disable TLS certificate verification (not recommended in production), you can set `insecureSkipVerify` to true.
113+
114+
This will skip verification of the server's certificate and allow connecting to targets with self-signed or invalid certificates.
115+
116+
```yaml
117+
remoteWrite:
118+
- url: https://victoria-logs:9428
119+
tls:
120+
insecureSkipVerify: true
121+
```
122+
123+
### Ignore fields
124+
125+
VictoriaLogs efficiently compresses repeated values, such as pod and node labels.
126+
However, if you prefer not to store certain fields, you can ignore them using the `ignoreFields` option.
127+
For example:
128+
129+
```yaml
130+
remoteWrite:
131+
- url: http://victoria-logs:9428
132+
ignoreFields:
133+
- file
134+
- kubernetes.container_id
135+
- kubernetes.pod_annotations*
136+
- kubernetes.node_labels*
137+
- kubernetes.namespace_labels*
138+
- kubernetes.pod_labels*
139+
```
140+
141+
This allows you to exclude unnecessary or sensitive fields from being ingested.
142+
If sensitive data has already been ingested, see how to
143+
[exclude logs from search result](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/security-and-lb/#access-control-inside-a-single-tenant).
144+
145+
### Extra fields
146+
147+
You can add custom fields to your logs by including the `extraFields` section in your configuration.
148+
For example:
149+
150+
```yaml
151+
remoteWrite:
152+
- url: http://victoria-logs:9428/
153+
extraFields:
154+
zone: us-east1-c
155+
source: victoria-logs-agent
156+
```
157+
158+
This feature lets you attach metadata to every log entry,
159+
making it easier to filter, group, or analyze logs based on these additional attributes.
160+
161+
{{ include "chart.installSection" . }}
162+
163+
{{ include "chart.uninstallSection" . }}
164+
165+
{{ include "chart.helmDocs" . }}
166+
167+
## Parameters
168+
169+
The following tables lists the configurable parameters of the chart and their default values.
170+
171+
Change the values according to the need of the environment in ``victoria-logs-agent/values.yaml`` file.
