How to extract fields with empty values at index time?

In our logs, we have the below two lines where we need to extract both empty & values for Dms_Code. Currently we are getting only values, but not empty, due to this other values are not getting populated in the UI.

Regex :

EXTRACT-Server_Name=\[(?<TimeDate>[^]]+)\]\s\[(?P<Server_Name>[^]]+)\]\s\[(?P<severity>[^]]+)\]\s\[\w+\-(?P<Dms_Code>[^]]+)\]\s\[(?P<Incident>[^]]+)\]\s

Try this

EXTRACT-Server_Name = \[(?<TimeDate>[^\]]+)\]\s\[(?P<Server_Name>[^\]]+)\]\s\[(?P<severity>[^\]]+)\]\s\[(\w+-)*(?P<Dms_Code>\d*)]\s\[(?<Incident>[^\]]+)\]

I think it is because in your regex you have used w+ for Dms_Code, it is not getting empty values. Modify your regex to accept empty values also.
