I have a log with below as a source field from which I need to extract the field Gateway name (My_Gateway_NONPROD).

Any help in how to extract it?.

source= /apps/geneos/gateway/logs/My_Gateway_NONPROD.log

hi @pbsuju

Give this a try : | rex field=source ".*\/(?<gateway_name>[^\.]*)" | table gateway_name

All the best!
