Hi,

I have created a KVstore

_key value should be avc_id field 

In my case the key value is auto created, how to correct it?

hi @VijaySrrie,
You can update the KVStore collection using outputlookup command with setting _key to the field avc_id values. 

| inputlookup kvstore_lookup_name | eval _key=avc_id | outputlookup kvstore_lookup_name

 

If this reply helps you, an upvote/like would be appreciated.

This creates duplicate events with original and new _keys in the KVStore collection.
