Original_host

Original_host Filed extraction should be aligned if a Syslog server have different date/time format. The current filed extraction is defined based on your syslog server and I am positive that this app works only for a couple of Splunk customers.

in the props.conf, the original_host extraction won't work for the majority of users  - EXTRACT-original_host = \d+-\d{2}-\d{2}T\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}\.\d+[\+\-]\d{2}:\d{2}\s(?<original_host>\S+)

original_host is I believe a crucial fiield, so all datamodels can work as expected

Ok. We have no context. You're writing as if we were supposed to know what you are talking about. You're posting in a Splunk Enterprise section of this forum, which is meant for questions specific to on-premise software functionality and issues. But you selected a specific add-on as a product you're referring to. In such case you should have posted in the 'All Apps and Add-ons' section. We do not have glass orbs and don't know what you mean 😉

Honestly? I have no idea what you're talking about. Could you be more specific?
