Hi there, I have a search below:

host = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx AND duration

| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)

| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)

// At this point, all subsequent conditions are not run anymore

| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| replace (something) with (something)
| search API=(something)
| rex field=_raw (something)
| sort 1 - duration

Is there a way to increase the number of conditions to enable the entire search to be done?

Can't you use IFX to extract the values and then use them directly in your query? It may save all those pain of writing the regex expressions.

Hi @ pramit46

Would you mind to elaborate? Also, all the regex expression are to extract different information to be used in displaying, thus that many regex and replace renaming.
