Split event before apply profiling

Hi all,

I have events tagged with tag1 and others with tag2. In the restricted search terms of the search in roles, I have NOT tag=tag1 so users can't see tag1 events. The problem is when an event contains both tags, so users cannot see the events and they should.

Is there any way to split that events by tag in order that users are able to see those which contains tag2?

Thanks in advance.

Hi pbalbasm,
let me understand: do you want a search with the condition tag=tag2?
if yes, try something like this:

index=my_index tag=tag2

Hi Giuseppe,

Thank you for your response. That's not what I'm asking. Due to the profiling, events which contain tag1 and tag2 at the same time, are already filtered and doesn't appear. What I need is to show events with tagged with (tag2) and (tag1tag2) at the same time.

Thanks.

ok, try this
index=my_index tag=tag2 OR (tag=tag1 tag=tag2)
Bye.

Hi, as I said that events doesn't appear, so it's not possible to manage in that way.

Sorry!
but if you use
index=my_index (tag=tag1 OR tag=tag2)

  • events with only tag1 are seen by users enabled for tag1,
  • events with only tag2 are seen by users enabled for tag2,
  • events with tag1 and tag2 should be seen by users enabled for tag1 or tag2,

Bye.
