Hi,

i have event like
vuln {

    host: some_host
    cve: {

        base_score: 10
        description: "Really nasty"
        references: [link_1

                                link_2]

    }
   remediation: {

     something: "something"

   }
}


Now I don't want table where json key is Column name but as Event raw in Table .

I would like to have dynamic Table something like

Name               | Value
base_score   | 10
description   |  Really nasty
references    | link_1, link_2

You mean like this

| makeresults
| eval _raw="{ \"vuln\" : {
    \"host\": \"some_host\",
    \"cve\": {
        \"base_score\": 10,
        \"description\": \"Really nasty\",
        \"references\": [\"link_1\",
        \"link_2\"]
    },
   \"remediation\": {
     \"something\": \"something\"
   }
}
}"
| spath 
| fields - _raw _time
| fields vuln.cve.*
| rename vuln.cve.* as *
| transpose 0 column_name="Key"
| rename "row 1" as Value

Take a look at Brett Adams' app on Splunkbase

https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/6161/

that is designed to extract key/value pairs as fields.

It didn't solve my challenge.

Basically what I am doing is a Visualization, when you click on CVE then I am population token and I want to create Table with CVE information but not as:

Column_1_name, Column_2_name,Column_3_name, .... as it's really not readable.

But I wanna have Table
Column_1_key, Column_2_value
key_name_1, key_value_1
key_name_2, key_value_2

I am really confused that Splunk does not have something like that out-of-the-box.

Or at least, can I somehow create a search, retrieve event and than manually fix column names and "event row's"

Yes, Thank you 🙂
I modified it a bit to map original json event and it's working as charm 🙂
