Hi Experts,

I have few logs as below, i want to capture all unregistered uri (from unregistered uri text to end of the each line) and put them all in one new field. I need to exclude some text in each line of the event

Hi,

not sure what you want to achieve exactly. But for your field, how about this field extraction:
your search here | rex max_match=0 "Unregistered the uri\s(?[^\n]+)"

This puts the results per event in one multi value field called "new_field". Is this what you wanted to do?

Greetings

Tom
