How to extract a specific work from Splunk logs?

I would like to extract status value (i.e. 201) highlighted below using RegEx in the following link. However, it didn't work. Please advise

https://regex101.com/r/QIB8EG/1

Rex \"status\":(?<status>[^\}])\",\"requestId\":

 

{"level":"debug","message":"handler result : {\"body\":\"{\\\"numberOfProcessedRecords\\\":1}\",\"status\":201}","requestId":"ecd06f97-975b-5faf-81a0-3431fb4d1070"}

Hi @Manth,

please try this:

\"status\\\":(?<status>\d+)

Thank you @gcusello .

When I have my splunk query as below, I was expecting Status in the SELECTED FIELDS, however, I don't see the Status filed in the left menu. Am I doing anything wrong here. Please advise.

index=application source="aws:lambda"  | rex "\\"status\\":(?<Status>\w+)}\""

Hi @Manth,

if you create a field using rex, by default you have this field in interesting fields not in Selected fields.

If you want it in Selected fields, you have to select it!

Ciao.
