[Pipeline](../pipelines/) stages are used to transform log entries and their labels. The pipeline is executed after the discovery process finishes. The `pipeline_stages` object consists of a list of stages which correspond to the items listed below.

Stages serve several purposes, more detail can be found [here](../pipelines/), however generally you extract data with `regex` or `json` stages into a temporary map which can then be use as `labels` or `output` or any of the other stages aside from `docker` and `cri` which are explained in more detail below.
