I have created a UI which loads the user selected log file in Splunk. Now I have to extract some fields from that file and display that in a table format. How can I do it?
For the UI, I am using jsp and servlets.

I have another question.Kindly help on this one also
I have extracted certain feilds using java sdk from splunk with the table command. How can i view that data as a table in my java form.
or
The data extracted is in the form of job. How can i convert that data into string, so that i can apply conditional operators on that data.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You are better off clicking Accept on this question and asking a new one. At this point, you and I are probably the only ones listening and you need a broader audience.

But what if my index contains multiple files that have some common fields and i only want to retrieve the data from one file and not all the files?
