How to search unstructured log for all values in your lookup file?

[luc_k]

Hi,

I'd like to search our log for multiple possible errors from our lookup file:

to return only the records containing in any field one of the strings in the Error column and show the corresponding value from the Source column.

Is there a way ,such as | inputlookup errors.csv | foreach... | search ...?

Many thanks in advance,

Luc

Thank you for your prompt reply. This returns the search results. How do I return the Source column?

Hi luc_k,
it's possible to search for the full string yu have in the Ettor field.
In other words: you can search for "Some Errors occurred" but not for Some Errors occurred
try something like this

your_search [ | inputlookup your_lookup.csv | rename Error AS quesry | fields query ]
| ...

In this way you search in full text search in all events.

Bye.

To return the Source column - something like your_search [ | inputlookup your_lookup.csv | rename Error AS quesry | fields query ] | lookup your_lookup.csv ...?

Hi luc_k,
it isn't so easy this last question because when you use query field in search you lose the pair field=value and you have to rebuid it,
you should try something like this:

 your_search [ | inputlookup your_lookup.csv | rename Error AS quesry | fields query ]
 | rename _raw as rawText
 | eval foo=[
     | inputlookup your_lookup.csv 
     | eval query="%"+Error+"%" 
     | stats values(query) AS query 
     | eval query=mvjoin(query,",") 
     | fields query 
     | format "" "" "" "" "" ""
     ]
| eval foo=split(foo,",") 
| mvexpand foo 
| where like(rawText,foo)
| rex field=foo "\%(?<Error>[^\%]*)\%"
| ...

Bye.
