Hello Splunkers!!

 

I have two fields AND I want to concatenate both the fields.

Location : 3102.01.03

element : S82(=3102+LCC60-550S5)

And I want a result : 3102.01.03.S82(=3102+LCC60-550S5)

 

I have tried Location.".".element but it is not working properly. Please suggest me a fic workaround.

Not sure it is "not working"

| makeresults
| eval Location="3102.01.03"
| eval element="82(=3102+LCC60-550S5)"
| eval field=Location.".".element

Can you provide more details of how it isn't working?

It should work this way.

See the run-anywhere example

| makeresults 
| eval a="a", b="b", c=a.".".b

For future reference:

1) Please set the subject of your post to something more descriptive than just "SPL". You're posting in the Splunk Search section, we get that you probably need help with some SPL

2) Be more descriptive than "is not working". What do you mean by that? You get any error? You get blank result? You get just one field and not the other?
