Splunk Search

Extract any character when dot is present?

Hi,

I have different mails in my logs and I need to filter them in order to distinguish real users from technical users. I noticed that real users have an email like [email protected], so I would like to extract these emails matching "anycharacter.anycharacter@any" because in some case it could be possible to have an email with numbers (ex. [email protected]).

Thank you in advance!

Hi @marco_massari11,

you could use the regex command:

your_search
| regex "\w+\.\w+\@\w+\.\w+"

Ciao.
