Splunk Search

Did folderize stop working?

I had an old Splunk saved search from several versions ago which successfully used folderize.

However, when I ran it recently under Splunk 4.1.6 it seems to run but, finally returns the error:

[SimpleResultsTable module] Server reported HTTP status=400 while getting mode=results Error in 'folderize' command: Folderize requires an 'attr' value.

Here is my search:

 index=uad-ps sourcetype="access_combined_rsptime" | stats count(uri) by uri | folderize size=count(uri) attr=uri   sep="/"

The example in the Splunk docu. also fails with same error. Here is that search:

| metadata type=sources | folderize maxfolders=20 attr=source sep="/"| sort totalCount d

I swear my search was working when I saved it.
Should I submit a bug report?

Hi ualbanytech,

you probably should have done so. Meanwhile we arrived at Splunk verison 6.2.4 and folderize works again.
Running your last example | metadata type=sources | folderize maxfolders=20 attr=source sep="/"| sort totalCount d will give you this result:
