Hi All, I'm to trying to set an email alert notification by using splunk. In the alert Description, I just want to mention only particular field values that search returns. I thought of using $result.fieldname$ but, As splunk says it only returns field first row value in the description. For Example:
Field name: values
numbers 1,2,3,4,5
search: index=""|table numbers
alert Description: The number values are: $result.numbers$
O/P:
The number values are: 1
O/p Expected:
The number values are:
1,2,3,4,5
True. Since he wrote "Field name: values" in the first line I thought "values" is the field name @Kk uses but the table command should've made it obvious to me
Hi @Kk !
Untested Theory but you could try to make a hidden field like this and reference it with a result token.
|eventstats values(values) as _values
then reference it in the Mail Description like this:
$result._values$
Yes in your @Kk case, it would be
|eventstats values(numbers) as _numbers
and then you can reference in your description:
$result._numbers$
Did you try something like this?
True. Since he wrote "Field name: values" in the first line I thought "values" is the field name @Kk uses but the table command should've made it obvious to me
This doesn't work @FelixLeh
You could also compromise to make it a visible field (eventstats values(fieldename) as new_fieldname) but then its included in your Splunk table. But then it should definitely work.
Sry, my bad. It is working now..
