Hi 

Can anyone help me why the below search is not working. 

index=aws sourcetype=aws:cloudtrail eventName=Create* OR eventName=Run* OR eventName=Attach* 
|stats count by src eventName 
| iplocation src

 

Thanks

Search is working for me;  against my AWS dataset

By not working (no results) or just no iplocation lookup??

Try iterative approach

1.  Search  ensure results:  (expand time window as necessary)

 

index=aws sourcetype=aws:cloudtrail ( eventName=Create* OR eventName=Run* OR eventName=Attach* )

 

2.   added your stats count by src, eventName

I assume you are getting ip's and not hostname's in the src field  (well a single IP).

3.  If the src's is somehow a multivalue,  (multipe ips) something your are going to need an mvexpand, split if comma separated or something.  It hast to be getting a single ip per row.


4.  | iplocation src

Hope this helps.
