Splunk Search

Combining/appending multiple makeresults

I am providing data from one input in the dashboard, and want to search provided input strings in different fields which may include provided inputs. all the fields can contain same data format if they are not empty. 

I am using the following search, but not working.

Note: provided input can be single values as well.

Expected result:

 

index=hashstore

a.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR a.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR a.hash="ccccccccccc"
OR
b.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR b.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR b.hash="ccccccccccc"
OR
c.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR c.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR c.hash="ccccccccccc"
OR
d.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR d.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR d.hash="ccccccccccc"

 


CURRENT SEARCH -- not giving the expected result.

 

index=hashstore


[| makeresults
| rename a.hash{} as hash
| eval a.hash="aaaaaaaaa,bbbbbbbbbb,ccccccccccc"
| eval a.hash=split(a.hash,",")
| mvexpand a.hash

| append
[| makeresults
| rename b.hash{} as b.hash
| eval b.hash="aaaaaaaaa,bbbbbbbbbb,ccccccccccc" | eval b.hash=split(b.hash,",")
| mvexpand b.hash
]
| append
[| makeresults
| rename c.hash{} as c.hash
| eval c.hash ="aaaaaaaaa,bbbbbbbbbb,ccccccccccc" | eval c.hash =split(c.hash ,",")
| mvexpand c.hash
]

| append
[| makeresults
| rename d.hash{} as d.hash
| eval d.hash="aaaaaaaaa,bbbbbbbbbb,ccccccccccc" | eval d.hash=split(d.hash,",")
| mvexpand d.hash
]


| table a.hash, b.hash, c.hash, d.hash
]

 

Thanks,

Since

index=hashstore

a.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR a.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR a.hash="ccccccccccc"
OR
b.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR b.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR b.hash="ccccccccccc"
OR
c.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR c.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR c.hash="ccccccccccc"
OR
d.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR d.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR d.hash="ccccccccccc"

can be written as

index=hashstore

a.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
a.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
a.hash="ccccccccccc" OR
b.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
b.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
b.hash="ccccccccccc" OR
c.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
c.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
c.hash="ccccccccccc" OR
d.hash="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
d.hash="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
d.hash="ccccccccccc"

your search can be something like

index=hashstore
    [| makeresults 
    | eval hash=split("abcd","")
    | mvexpand hash
    | eval hash=hash.".hash"
    | eval value=split("aaaaaaaaa,bbbbbbbbbb,ccccccccccc",",")
    | mvexpand value
    | eval {hash}=value
    | fields - _time hash value]

@ITWhisperer 

Thanks for solution, this is working fine, but the issue is my original field names are ending with {}. I forget to mention it, original search should be like below. 

How can I get this result? 

 

index=hashstore

a.hash{}="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
a.hash{}="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
a.hash{}="ccccccccccc" OR
b.hash{}="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
b.hash{}="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
b.hash{}="ccccccccccc" OR
c.hash{}="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
c.hash{}="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
c.hash{}="ccccccccccc" OR
d.hash{}="aaaaaaaaa" OR 
d.hash{}="bbbbbbbbbb" OR 
d.hash{}="ccccccccccc"
