Append search filtering in the second search by a field of the first one

[rodkinal]

Hello,

I'm trying to append a search to my principal search by filtering the second search using a field of the first one. Let me explain myself better.

My first search has different fields:index=machines environment=production | table ip, domain-name, last-update, application

ip,       domain-name,   last-update,     application
10.0.0.1, machine_A,     1/1/2018,        mysql
10.0.0.2, machine_B,     1/2/2018,        apache2
10.1.1.4, machine _4000, 4/5/2018,        smb-server

My second search has other fields: index=admin environment=administrator | table administrator, os-system, domain-name, last-connection

administrator, os-system,   domain-name,   last-connection

admin1,        linux,       machine_A,     1/1/2017

admin2,        linux,       machine_B,     1/2/2017

admin3,        windows,     machine _4000, 4/5/2017

I would like to merge both table using the domain-name of the first search. I would like to use the field domain-name of the first search to lookup on the second one for it's administrator and the OS so the result would look like this:

ip,       domain-name,   last-update,     application, administrator, os-system

10.0.0.1, machine_A,     1/1/2018,        mysql        admin1         linux

10.0.0.2, machine_B,     1/2/2018,        apache2      admin2         linux

10.1.1.4, machine _4000, 4/5/2018,        smb-server   admin3         windows

I've tried using this search:

index=main environment=production | rename domain-name as domain-name_1 | append [search index=admin environment=administrator | rename domain-name as domain-name_2 ] | table ip, domain-name, last-update, application, administrator, os-system | where domain-name_1 = domain-name_2

I have also tried using join and other weird things like appendcols. It didn't work. The fields of the second search doesn't appear.

Can anyone help me please?

Thank you very much in advance!! 😄

Try this:

index=machines environment=production | join domain-name
[ search index=admin environment=administrator
| dedup domain-name]

Hi @ansif , let say in this situation

I have different domain-name

table 1: domain-name-a
table 2: domain-name-b

then, how can I do to join the both query? Thanks

This worked for me!! I didn't release about the join command!

Kind regards! 🙂
