How to parse XML file in Splunk (Qualys report)

danje57
Path Finder

Hi all,

I'm trying for the very first time to parse XML with Splunk.

My file is a Qualys report. Typically, however, I can' t use the Qualys Splunk app as I receive only the XML report file.

I would like to parse it using Splunk, however, I don't know what are the configurations to apply and what are the steps for that.

I need to parse data in stanza and retrieve all information which are in blocks.

Do you have any suggestion?

An example of the content of the XML file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<!DOCTYPE SCAN SYSTEM "https://qualysguard.qualys.eu/scan-1.dtd">

Must break after doesn't apply when should linemerge is false.

Your original line breaker will break the xml into improper xml.

Use SHOULD_LINEMERGE=true and BREAK_ONLY_AFTER=<\IP>

Also kv_mode is a search time extraction and as such it needs to be in the app you're viewing the data in but the other settings (should line merge and break only after) should be on the indexer or forwarder where the data is being sourced.

In props.conf you use INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS=xml and you put the props on the forwarder or just /etc/system/local if you're on a single instance.

Click on the props.conf link here/above/below for more details on configuring props.conf.
