Splunk Search

How can I find an IP address that only requested a specific URL?

Trying to search web access logs to find instances where a specific IP only called a single URL, and no other URLs. This IP could have made this call more than once, but didn't request any other URLs through that server. Basically looking for a list of IPs that requested the "/test.html" page, and nothing else.

This is what I tried so far, but it's just grouping by IP and showing all the URLs.

sourcetype=webaccess clientip!="-" | stats count by clientip | stats list(url) as URL, list(count) as Count, sum(count) as CountByIP by clientip | where CountByIP=1 AND URL="/test.html"

Try:

sourcetype=webaccess clientip!="-" | stats values(url) AS url, dc(url) AS url_dc BY clientip | search url="/test.html" url_dc=1

And I can't imagine the search you included in your question actually does anything. Once you call your first stats command, the only fields you'd have are count and clientip.

Excellent. Please accept the answer as well, so this question no longer appears open.
