There was a typo in my query, there shouldn't be space after field= 

Please try below;

index="abc" sourcetype="xyzt" BuildName!="g*" (BuildResult ="*") 
| eval TimeTaken=round('BuildDuration'/1000) 
| fieldformat TimeTaken = tostring(TimeTaken, "duration") 
| rex mode=sed field=BuildStartDate "s/\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}\s[A-Z]{3}\s//g" 
| table ORG BuildResult BuildStartDate TimeTaken 
| where ORG="gcp"

Hi @aditsss,

You can use below query;

| rex mode=sed field= BuildStartDate "s/\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}\s[A-Z]{3}\s//g"

@scelikok 

I tried like that but getting error in rex.

Can you guide me where I am wrong:

index="abc" sourcetype="xyzt" BuildName!="g*" (BuildResult ="*")|eval TimeTaken=round('BuildDuration'/1000) | fieldformat TimeTaken = tostring(TimeTaken, "duration")| rex mode=sed field= BuildStartDate "s/\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}\s[A-Z]{3}\s//g"|table ORG BuildResult BuildStartDate TimeTaken| where ORG="gcp"

Getting below Error:

Error in 'rex' command: Failed to initialize sed. cannot find sed command: B

Can you guide me where I am wrong.

Thanks in advance
