Send logs (not logs as metrics) to BigQuery using Telegraf

1

Hi,
We would like to use Telegraf as the agent to exclusively handle sending system performance metrics into our TSDB and also use it to send logs to our cloud log appliance in JSON format, similar to other log collection tools.
Does Telegraf support collecting and sending logs (not logs as metrics) in JSON (or others) format?

Thanks in advance!

Here are some resources for you to get started:
