Hello,

I have some issues with the field extraction for the following event (one sample event given below). Any recommendations will be highly appreciated. Thank you!

Sample Event

{

"time":"2022-07-01T10:44:16.230-05:10","@ver":"21","type":"track","DSTEST":"true","msg":"{\"timeStamp\":"2021-08-22T19:53:36.123+0000\",\"appName\":"wins\",\"userType\":"admin\",\"StatCd\":null,\"dollarAmt\":null,\"errorMsg\":null,\"eId\":"VIEW_BALANCE\",\"eventType\":"VIEW\",\"SourceCd\":"01\",\"ipAddr\":"127.0.0.13\",\"mftCd\":null,\"outputCd\":null,\"pNum\":null,\"rCd\":null,\"rtCd\":"03\",\"sId\":"48c42153-9cba2-42345-8faf-b57fb60fba6b\",\"tP\":null,\"empCode\":"234ass23\",\"empType\":"09\",\"uId\":"2350066750a0\",\"vd\":{}}"}

What "issues" are you having?  What have you tried so far?  What were the results of those attempts?  What results do you expect?

Hello,

Thank you so much for your quick response.

Objective is to extract Key Value pairs and

I was trying to use this code

time"\:"(?P<Time_Stamp>.+)","\@ver"\:"(?P<Ver>\d+)","type"\:"(?<Type>\w+)",

to extract each of the key value pairs. it not working as expected since some cases Key doesn't have corresponding Value...like following event doesn't have Value for type

{

{

"time":"2022-07-01T10:44:16.230-05:10","@ver":"21","type":"","DSTEST":"true","msg":"{\"timeStamp\":"2021-08-22T19:53:36.123+0000\",\"appName\":"wins\",\"userType\":"admin\",\"StatCd\":null,\"dollarAmt\":null,\"errorMsg\":null,\"eId\":"VIEW_BALANCE\",\"eventType\":"VIEW\",\"SourceCd\":"01\",\"ipAddr\":"127.0.0.13\",\"mftCd\":null,\"outputCd\":null,\"pNum\":null,\"rCd\":null,\"rtCd\":"03\",\"sId\":"48c42153-9cba2-42345-8faf-b57fb60fba6b\",\"tP\":null,\"empCode\":"234ass23\",\"empType\":"09\",\"uId\":"2350066750a0\",\"vd\":{}}"}

All of the keys have values, but some of the values are empty.  We can do that in a regex, but using * rather than + as the quantifier.

time":"(?P<Time_Stamp>.+)","@ver":"(?P<Ver>\d+)","type":"(?<Type>\w*)",
