Kafka Log

Kong Gateway 3.9.x

• Fixed an issue where the plugin couldn’t function correctly when configured in a non-default workspace with certificate_id.
• Reduced noisy logs from the plugin and counters.

Kong Gateway 3.4.x

• The Kafka Log plugin now supports the custom_fields_by_lua configuration for dynamic modification of log fields using Lua code.
• Fixed an issue where the plugin could lose connection to a broker when the broker leadership changed.

Kong Gateway 2.8.x

• Added support for the SCRAM-SHA-512 authentication mechanism.
• Added the cluster_name configuration parameter.
• The authentication.user and authentication.password configuration fields are now marked as referenceable, which means they can be securely stored as secrets in a vault. References must follow a specific format.

Kong Gateway 2.7.x

• Starting with Kong Gateway 2.7.0.0, if keyring encryption is enabled, the config.authentication.user and config.authentication.password parameter values will be encrypted.

  There’s a bug in Kong Gateway that prevents keyring encryption from working on deeply nested fields, so the encrypted=true setting does not currently have any effect in this plugin.

Kong Gateway 2.6.x

• The Kafka Log plugin now supports TLS, mTLS, and SASL auth. SASL auth includes support for PLAIN, SCRAM-SHA-256, and delegation tokens.
