Hi All

My search results from Splunk look like below

2015-11-13 06:32:33,949|a.abcd|DAS|callabcd():getTime|0.296|SUCCESS|Data : 254|1447414015145[B@8d7c046b8089602570758821847|null|null

I want to extract the value 0.296 from this. Can you please let me know how to do this? I have already tried with below options and it doesn't work.

Option 1:

search_query  | rex field=_raw "^([^|]+|){5} +(?<x>[^|]+)"| table x

Option 2:

search_query  | rex field=_raw "^([^\|]+\|){5} +(?<x>[^\|]+)"| table x

Will it always be a decimal number? If it will be, you can use this \|(\d\.\d+) Alternately, you could setup field extractions and specify | the delim.
