 ## tip
 
 * FEATURE: support overriding of `-search.latencyOffset` value via URL param `latency_offset` when performing requests to [/api/v1/query](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyConcepts.html#instant-query) and [/api/v1/query_range](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyConcepts.html#range-query). See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3481).
+* FEATURE: allow changing field names in JSON logs if VictoriaMetrics components are started with `-loggerFormat=json` command-line flags. The field names can be changed with the `-loggerJSONFields` command-line flag. For example `-loggerJSONFields=ts:timestamp,msg:message` would rename `ts` and `msg` fields on the output JSON to `timestamp` and `message` fields. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2348). Thanks to @michal-kralik for [the pull request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/3488).
 
 * BUGFIX: allow specifying values bigger than 2GiB to the following command-line flag values on 32-bit architectures (`386` and `arm`): `-storage.minFreeDiskSpaceBytes` and `-remoteWrite.maxDiskUsagePerURL`. Previously values bigger than 2GiB were incorrectly truncated on these architectures.
 * BUGFIX: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): stop dropping metric name by a mistake on the [/metric-relabel-debug](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#relabel-debug) page.
