Hi @SPLUNK111,

you question is just a little bit vague!

How can I help you without knowing which are the data where to extract fields and create searches?

Anyway, your approach should be:

  • analyze your data,
  • extract fields to use in all your searches (using regexes or the Interactive Field Extractor),
  • create one by one your searches answering to you use cases.

If you're new, the best approach is to follow the Splunk Fundamentals I course (https://www.splunk.com/en_us/training/free-courses/splunk-fundamentals-1.html) and the Splunk Search Tutorial (https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.1.0/SearchTutorial/WelcometotheSearchTutorial) to understand how to do the above activities.

In addition on YouTube you can find many videos about this.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
