Field: flow_id
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Correlates the network protocol, flow logs EVE data and any evidence that
Suricata has logged to an ``alert`` event and that alert's metadata, as well as
to ``fileinfo``/file transaction and anomaly logs, if available. The same correlation
and logs are produced regardless if there is an alert, for any session/flow.
The ability to correlate EVE logs belonging to a specific session/flow was
introduced in 2014 (see `commit f1185d051c21 <https://github.com/OISF/suricata/
commit/f1185d051c210ca0daacdddbe865a51af24f4ea3>`_).
Further below, you can see several examples of events logged by Suricata: an
:ref:`alert<eve-format-alert>` for an ``HTTP`` rule, ``fileinfo``, :ref:`http<eve-format-http>`,
:ref:`anomaly<eve-format-anomaly>`, and :ref:`flow<eve-format-flow>` events, all
easily correlated using the ``flow_id`` EVE field::

It is possible to have even more detailed alert records, by enabling for
instance logging http-body, or alert metadata (:ref:`alert output<eve-output-alert>`).
Examples come from pcap found at https://app.any.run/tasks/ce7ca983-9e4b-4251-a7c3-fefa3da02ebe/.
