hi @venkateshn2382 ,

did you tried to use INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS = json in your props.conf?

you can find more details at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/Latest/Admin/Propsconf

This option must be located in the Universal Forwarder and in the Heavy Forwarder (if present) and in the Search Heads.

Ciao.

Giuseppe

@gcusello The data is ingested via http event collector.

Hi @venkateshn2382 ,

you have to try to use the INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS = json in the sourcetype associated to the HEC.

Ciao.
