Hi,

I am trying to extract data from one of the column in lookup file. Regex expression is working in rex tool. I want to use that regex expression in rex command in splunk .

Rexgex expression  ^.*(?= \[)

Example: Want to extract the highlighted bold data. This data is present in csv lookup file.

  1. TAX PLATFORM [12998]
  2. CPOI [0639]

 

| inputlookup Meta.csv 
| rex field=Application "^.*(?<name>= \[)"

Sorry, I left the '=' in unnecessarily - try this

| inputlookup Meta.csv 
| rex field=Application "^(?<name>.*) \["
