Hi sandeepmakkena,

Try something like this:

your search here
| rex field=src "buy-(?<family>[^\/]+)\/(?<product>.+)$"
| more SPL here

This will return a field called family and product with values of laptop or mobile respectively dell-200 or LG-i20 based on your provided sample events.

Hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS

Greetings @sandeepmakkena,

Please try this run-anywhere search. Pick and choose the values you need.

| makeresults
| eval src = "https://www.abcd.com/shop/buy-laptop/dell-200"
| append 
    [ | makeresults 
      | eval src= "https://www.abcd.com/shop/buy-mobile/LG-i20" ]
| rex field=src "(?<category>[^/]+)/[^/]+$"
| rex field=src "buy-(?<category_no_buy>[^/]+)/[^/]+$"
| rex field=src "(?<item>[^/]+)$"
| table src category_no_buy category item

Output:

src                                        category_no_buy   category      item
https://www.abcd.com/shop/buy-laptop/dell-200    laptop      buy-laptop dell-200
https://www.abcd.com/shop/buy-mobile/LG-i20    mobile        buy-mobile LG-i20
