I am retrieving operation details like operation name, total time etc from json message log coming as a part of splunk search event.  I want to have a custom name of the operation which was extracted from json data.

Current Result:-

Operation Total time
PREDICT: A1: B1: C1 100
PREDICT: A2: B2: C2 200
PREDICT: A3: B3: C3 300
PREDICT: A4: B4: C4 400



Expected Result:-

Operation Total time
Service_A1 100
Service_A2 200
Service_A3 300
Service_A4 400

Hi @Anu1184,

if the expected values for OPeration are in a limitated and fixed number of values, you can use eval case to rename them at the end of your search:

| eval Operation=case(Operation="PREDICT: A1: B1: C1","Service_A1", Operation="PREDICT: A2: B2: C2","Service_A2", Operation="PREDICT: A3: B3: C3", "Service_A3", Operation="PREDICT: A4: B4: C4","Service_A4")

Ciao.
