User Behavior search error in Tsidxstats 6.0

When I attempt to search for a user I get the error "Error in 'TsidxStats': WHERE clause is not an exact query." Our user's come from the pan in the form domain\username. The other search fields appear to work fine. If related, traffic and data events are at 0 as well.

I upgraded to 6.0 from 5.4 by straight upgrading, by "Install from file" and then did a fresh reinstall as well (was fixing other issues).

Thanks for reporting this. I filed a bug here:

https://github.com/PaloAltoNetworks/SplunkforPaloAltoNetworks/issues/65

We'll fix this in App 6.0.1. As a workaround, in the dashboard's source line 4, change $user$ to "$user|s$".

Thanks again!

Hi, I looked at the query and it's already set to $user|s$. I changed it to $user$ in case it got flip flopped, and now the search runs without error using *username.

Thanks for the feedback. If you use $user|s$, don't forget you need the double-quotes around it: "$user|s$". That is most likely the reason for the issue. $user$ also works if you're willing to use a wildcard for the domain like you mentioned.
