index="abc" aws_appcode="123" logGroup="watch" region="us-east-1" (cwmessage.message = "*Notification(REQUESTED)*")
|stats latest(_time) as start_time by cwmessage.transId
|join cwmessage.transId
[search index="abc" aws_appcode="123" logGroup="watch" region="us-east-1" (cwmessage.message = "*Notification(COMPLETED)*")
|stats latest(_time) as cdx_time by cwmessage.transId ]
[search index="abc" aws_appcode="123" logGroup="watch" region="us-east-1" (cwmessage.message = "*Notification(UPDATeD)*")
|stats latest(_time) as upd_time by cwmessage.transId ]
|join cwmessage.transId
|eval cdx=cdx_time-start_time, upd=upd_time-cdx_time
|table cwmessage.transId, cdx,upd



From above query I'm using index query in multiple times, i want to use it as base search and call that in all nested searches for the dashboard. Please help me.
Thanks

Are you trying to reduce the number of joins in the query (a good goal) or use this query in multiple dashboard panels (or maybe both)?

Try something like this

index="abc" aws_appcode="123" logGroup="watch" region="us-east-1" (cwmessage.message = "*Notification(REQUESTED)*") OR (cwmessage.message = "*Notification(COMPLETED)*") OR (cwmessage.message = "*Notification(UPDATED)*")
| stats latest(eval(if(match('cwmessage.message',".*Notification\(REQUESTED\).*"),_time,null()))) as start_time latest(eval(if(match('cwmessage.message',".*Notification\(COMPLETED\).*"),_time,null()))) as cdx_time latest(eval(if(match('cwmessage.message',".*Notification\(UPDATED\).*"),_time,null()))) as upd_time by cwmessage.transId
| eval cdx=cdx_time-start_time, upd=upd_time-cdx_time
| table cwmessage.transId, cdx,upd
