I am having trouble trying to parse data from a raw event line.

The raw event come in 2 different ways further below using the following regex info

(?i)^(?:[^^]*^){2}(?P[^^]+)

The issue is some have ^ and others %5E is there a way to capture both in the extraction?

[30/Jan/2014:04:59:58 +0000] "GET /t25f.png?Starcom_CrystalLight_CrystalLight_BS_Visor1_3023150_5184568%5E5184568%5E23255909%5E3098598 HTTP/1.1" 200 h://cms.springboard.gorillanation.com/embed_iframe/1085/video/854883/tjbr001/thejasminebrand.com/10"

Thanks you all for any help.

Try this workaround

your base search ..| eval new_raw=replace(_raw,"%5E","^")| rex field=new_raw "(?i)^(?:[^(\^)]*(\^)){2}(?P<bannerid>[^\^]+)"

This regex seems to work well on regexr:

GET(?:.*?(?:\^|%5E)){2}(?<bannerid>.*?)(?:\^|%5E)

Does that get you what you're looking for?

Am I correct in guessing that you want to extract

- 23255909 from the first event
- 23244639 from the second event
