Hey Joe, with other input types (like file) one can reference things like the path in the filter section.
Is it possible to refer to the topic_id in the filter section? I tried and nothing obvious worked. We are encoding a few things (like host name, and type) in the name of the topic, and would like to grok those values out. Let me know if anything comes to mind.
