I'm trying to parse the below sample using Delimiters, could anyone help with the extraction. Delimiters doesn't work for this. Can someone help with Regex commands.

rex max_match=0 "\[(?<field>[^\]]+)\]"

However, you have [ and ] inside a quoted string which may not be what you want, but would be trickier to avoid and perhaps might be just easier to accept and deal with separately.

^ that is roughly how I would write the extractions as well. I don't like delimiters, I would punch the sample data into regex101 and write an extraction out where each capture group is everything inside the bracket
example:

\[BDF\]\s\[(?<error_code>[^\]]+)\]\s\[(?<field2>[^\]]+)\]\s\[(?<field3>[^\]]+)\]

Just repeat the pattern until finished.

What exactly do you want to extract from that event?

Need to extract the  data like uri, unique id and many more. Mostly those are enclosed with [  ]
