Path Finder

My test script

splunk.auth.getSessionKey('admin','admin')
my_job = splunk.search.dispatch('search index=* source = orders.csv')
i = 0
for result in my_job.results:
result0 = my_job.results[i]
print i
i=i+1
print result0.fields

print result0['payment_type']

print result0.time

print result0.payment_type

Pl see attached two files - one has output of the print result0.fields and other is output of how the events look on search screen of Splunk (to indicate that there are many custom fields like payment_type, service_type etc alt text

Need

How do I print the content of the field payment_type or service_type ...I don't see them coming in when I print result0.fields.

Try adding |table * at the end of your search, this should allow any custom extracted fields to be displayed in your field output.
