Transform opentelemetry spans log event

Describe the issue you're reporting

I've been working with OpenTelemetry Collector using opentelemetry-collector-contrib:0.85.0. I have set up the auto instrumentation using opentelemetry laravel auto instrumentation and started receiving spans. but I realized in the spans log event I saw the Token printed out like this.

event = Token: abcdefghijklmn......
context = []
level   = info

is there a way to maybe hide or transform it into another string? to be something like this

event = Token: ********
context = []
level   = info

Hello @strelok29, if the Token value is of the same format for all spans you can use the blocked_values configuration option of the redaction processor. If you simply want to drop the key and its value you can do that as well.

Let me know if those options don't work, with more information we can look at other options.

@strelok29 what is event in this context? Is it an attribute on the span?
