Adding xauthuser to datamodel

[jairjr]

I tried to add the xauthuser field to the data model ftnt_fos and after that I get no results any more. Did I break it?

The xauthuser field carries the username that connected to the firewall using an ipsec tunnel, it's a critical field for the vpn dashboard.

In the Splunk web ui I went to Settings/Datamodels, then opened the "Fortinet FOS Log" datamodel:

• I disabled acceleration otherwise it does not allow me to edit the datamodel
• In the "Firewall Logs" item I added a new extracted field named xauthuser with type string.
• Enabled acceleration again.

Now when I go to any Fortigate pre-built dashboard I get "No results".

93%, now the dashboards are working. I think I just didn't wait enough, thank you for your help.

what file are you changing? the datamodel should be defined in SplunkAppForFortinet/default/data/models/ftnt_fos.json
what are your changes? please paste it here.
