.Net Core Serilog MSSQLServer Sink addAdditionalColumns to existing table

83 views Asked by At

I'm trying to add some new columns to my existing log. It only works if I remove the table completely and it generates a new one for me with all the columns.. If I try to tack on some new columns in the json configuration. It doesn't create it. See below. SourceId is the new column. Is there some additional configuration I need to set so it updates the table when new columns are added?

              {
                "ColumnName": "RequestPath",
                "DataType": "nvarchar",
                "DataLength": -1
              },
              {
                "ColumnName": "SourceId",
                "DataType": "int",
                "AllowNull": false
              }
            ]
          }
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

Tried to existing table and fails Tried with no table. Generates new table and succeeds. I expect it to create the new columns when I run the app.
