Splunk Search

How do I update the extracted part of the source field in props.conf and transforms.conf?

For example:

source = D:\Users\ABC\Desktop\splunk\abc.log

I have extracted the part of string I wanted using (?\w+\.\w+). My sourcetype=log4j

What changes need to be made in props.conf and transforms.conf so that it can reflect in Splunk?

Hi apurva,

For search-time extractions add this to your props.conf

[log4j]
EXTRACT-my_ext = your_regex    

Hope it helps.
