How compare variable URLs in a log against a lookup table of significant, matching substrings?

I have large variable URLs being logged that may include a unique substring somewhere within that is significant. How do I compare that URL against a lookup table of significant substrings?

For example some URL fields:

Match against two significant lookups, (keyword, Database):

  • "p=GPS" as "Database A"
  • auth.123XYZ as "Database B"

Any thoughts?

※Please change maxsearches as there are search counts that can be executed.

|inputlookup lookupfile |map search="search index=XXX $keyword$ |eval keyword=$keyword$,Database=$Database$"
