Getting Data In

Hi All,

I am trying to built the parsing stanza for one of the data, while testing I am getting an pop-up message stating that "could not use the strptime to parse timestamp from “2022-26-05T11:29:57”.

  As soon as I apply the Time_Format stanza the Splunk is throwing the message.  I am not sure what I am missing here.  so could you please help me resolving this issue.

I am not sure if this is your problem but, from the event, it looks like the second time format should be

TIME_FORMAT=%m/%d/%Y %I:%M:%S %p %s
