Hello Experts,

I am facing difficulty while performing a search on ES App. While performing a search in ES App filed extraction is not working and the same search is showing alert all other apps. I checked for app permission and is set to Global for all apps.

Please help me with possible troubleshooting. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

If you are running ES 5.2 or lower and your field extractions is defined outside ES app then you need to import app/add-ons which has field extraction defined in ES. Have a look at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ES/5.2.2/Install/ImportCustomApps#App_and_add-on_import_naming...
