Unable to extract fields from raw logs, how can I extract fields in this case?

Hi,

I have a number of raw logs that I need to extract some fields from.

When I go to "Event Actions" and then "Extract Fields", I normally get the following:

However, I am dealing with a number of logs for one index where I get this instead and I cannot extract anything:

How can I extract fields in this case?


Thanks,
Patrick

There are multiple ways to extract fields without using the interactive field extractor.
If you are comfortable with regex, You can try to use the |rex command to start building your extractions in search. After that you can just place them on a props.conf, or add them via settings >> fields >> field extractions.

If you are not comfortable with regex, you can post a sample of your data and we can help you out with that. 😉

Hope I was able to help you. If so, some karma would be appreciated.
