Hi Team,

I have a dashboard in which there are event date, event title, AD location, Logon location and IP address. I have visualized all the datas into my dashboard.

I my splunk query  i need to ignore if AD and Logon location are same. Need to ignore those events getting displayed in dashboard.

Here is the eg: 

AD location : Almaty,KZ Logon location: Almaty city, Almaty, KZ.  In this case I need to match any of these pair values. Like KZ or Almaty if anything is same. Need to ignore those in my dashboard.

I tried using Like and != operator coudn't able to get the search properly. 

Required a quick help.

Thanks,

If string in ad location is a substring of logic location string, you may try

|where !match(login_location,ad_location)

Here is a run anywhere example. Remove the where condition to see the data and it's comparison

|makeresults|eval ad_location="Almaty Almaty ABC KZ"|makemv ad_location| mvexpand ad_location
| appendcols [| makeresults |eval login_location="Almaty city,Almaty,XYZ,KZ"|makemv login_location delim=","|mvexpand login_location]
|where !match(login_location,ad_location)

@renjith_nair 

Thanks for ur response..!!

I prefer to use this: 

|where !match(login_location,ad_location)

But this is not ignoring the like search.

Eg: Logon location: Almaty, Almaty City, KZ and AD Location: Almaty, KZ. In this case I want to use a like condition to see atleast KZ matches. So need to ignore these results.

Please suggest if any like condition matches in 2fields that should be ignored.

Didn't quite get that

Can you make changes to the below dummy search with your inputs and expected output ?

|makeresults|eval ad_location="Almaty Almaty ABC KZ"|makemv ad_location| mvexpand ad_location
| appendcols [| makeresults |eval login_location="Almaty city,Almaty,XYZ,KZ"|makemv login_location delim=","|mvexpand login_location]
