The search I am using is below and in the output for few I am getting 3 records in the filed manage. Please help me to write a rex to get only a single record where protocol:{name:ssh}

index="unicorn" |fillnull value="_" | search infrastructure{}.name="FRA-SGSS ZONE PARTENAIRE FRANCE" location.building="*" type.name="*" location.room="*" teamInCharge{}.name="*"  |lookup Input_splunk_all.csv RTR as name  |spath output=manage remoteManagement{} | table name manage

If you see the output below for the name PFSOFW401 and PFSOFW01, I am getting more than 1 line for the manage filed- there I need single record.

name    manage

Not very clear on what the expected output is. If you want variable protocol to have value ssh, this should work.

|rex field=manage "\\?\"protocol\\?\"\:{\\?\"name\\?\"\:\\?\"(?<protocol>[^\\\"]+)"

Note: this rex accomodates for hidden backslash character. You can test your regular expressions here - regex101.com

Hope this helps
Cheers

EDIT: Based on the sample provided, here is the regex

| rex field=_raw "name\"\:\"(?<protocol>[^\"]+)" 
| rename protocol as "protocol:name"
