EVAL Command Help

Marco
Communicator

Hello Splunkers,

I am trying to write is a condition that says if command starts with "CHA" or "INS" add one.

The Query: 

host=*| eval AUDIT=if(like(COMMAND,"CHA % AUDIT%", "INS % AUDIT%"),1,0)| stats sum(AUDIT)

 

Not combining the conditions get me a working query EX: 

host=* | eval AUDIT=if(like(COMMAND,"CHA % AUDIT%"),1,0)|stats sum(AUDIT)

 

Is there a way I can get the query working?

Hi @richgalloway ,

After trying the query, I get and error message stating:

"Error in 'eval' command: The arguments to the 'like' function are invalid."
