2053871 - Add support for a new SubmissionType field to Socorro

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Socorro :: General, task, P1)

Description

[Bianca Danforth [:bdanforth]]

SubmissionType is how we will differentiate a Crash Ping from a Crash Report in Socorro. Unlike CrashEventID and StackTraces, it is not a crash annotation. It will be set by Antenna at ingest time based on which submission path the crash data arrived through. It is an enum with a value of either "ping" or "report".

From the processor side, this will look similar to Bug 2053525.

Acceptance criteria:

• Add SubmissionType to the raw and processed crash schemas as a public field.
  • Description should clarify that the field is added by Antenna; it is not a Crash Annotation. Defaults to "report" if the field is omitted.
• Ensure its value is copied over into the processed crash report during processing.
  • We have an existing CopyFromRawCrash rule, so I don't think we need a new processor rule to cover this.
• Ensure it's searchable by indexing it in Elasticsearch (i.e. adding it to SUPERSEARCH_FIELDS).
• Unit tests as appropriate.

This was deployed to production in https://github.com/mozilla-services/socorro/releases/tag/v2026.09.16. I verified that all newly processed crashes have a submission_type field in the processed crash with value report.
