How do I combine two searches in an eval command?

Hello,

How do I combine two searches in an eval command? In the example below, I'm trying to create a value for "followup_live_agent" and "caller_silence" values. Splunk is telling me this query is invalid. 

 

 

 

index=conversation sourcetype=cui-orchestration-log botId=123456
| eval AgentRequests=if(match(intent, "followup_live_agent" OR "caller_silence"), 1, 0)

 

 

 

Any help is much appreciated!

The match function does not accept boolean expressions - only expects strings and fields containing strings.  Try breaking it into 2 match calls.

 

index=conversation sourcetype=cui-orchestration-log botId=123456
| eval AgentRequests=if(match(intent, "followup_live_agent") OR match(intent, "caller_silence"), 1, 0)
