Solved: How do I read the field alias? - Splunk Community

Knowledge Management

When I see - FIELDALIAS-Status_as_Error_Code = Status AS Error_Code.

Does it mean that Status gets the value of Error_Code or the other way around?

Solution

It is this:

FIELDALIAS-<class> = <orig_field_name> AS <new_field_name>

Described here:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Knowledge/Configurefieldaliaseswithprops.conf
So Error_Code gets the value of Status.
