Getting Data In

Use source path time when ingesting data

I have the following source .I want to extract time from source when data is ingesting

 

source="/logs/gs/ute-2024-02-05a/2024-02-05_16-17-54/abc.log"

 

in props 

 

TRANSFORMS-set_time =source_path_time

 

 

In transforms 

 

[set_time_from_file_path]
INGEST_EVAL = | eval _time = strptime(replace(source, ".*/ute-(\\d{4}-\\d{2}-\\d{2}[a-z])/([^/]+/[^/]+).*","\1"),"%y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")

 

 

 

I tried testing it but I am unable to get the _time

 

| makeresults 
| eval source="/logs/gs/ute-2024-02-05a/2024-02-05_16-17-54/abc.log" 
| fields - _time
``` above set test data ```
| eval _time = strptime(replace(source, ".*/compute-(\\d{4}-\\d{2}-\\d{2}[a-z])/([^/]+/[^/]+).*","\1"),"%y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")

 

 

Thanks in Advance

Your props is not matching the stanza name of transforms. Not sure if that was a typo...
About a typo, you don't need that first pipe in the ingest_eval. Try this instead (I changed the regex a bit)

Props.conf:
[your_sourcetype]
TRANSFORMS-set_time = set_time_from_file_path

Transforms.conf
[set_time_from_file_path]
INGEST_EVAL = eval _time = strptime(replace(source, ".*/ute-(\\d{4}-\\d{2}-\\d{2}[a-z]+)/([^/]+/[^/]+).*","\\1"), "%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")
