How to extract values of a particular field for a json event.

I have an event which is in json and it has a repeating field say "message"

Example:

{

"Message":[

{

"message":"xyz987"

},

{

"message":"abc123"

},

{

"message":"abc456"

},

{

"message":"abc567"

},

]

}

 

I have to form a table with the values of message that only starts with abc(i.e abc123, abc456, abc567) and exclude the other values(i.e xyz987)

 

How may I achieve this?

 

Thanks in advance
