How to use replace in search?

Hi

How to replace a character in a field value with another character? I have below field value, I have to replace @ with %40.

event_id:
32323ff-343443fg-43344g-34344-343434fdef@@notable@@33434fdf-3434gfgfg-ere343

I'm trying to get this

32323ff-343443fg-43344g-34344-343434fdef%40%40notable5%40%4033434fdf-3434gfgfg-ere343

Unrelated to this query, but for special characters like period (.) use the escape character -"\".
Like - ... | eval name = replace("lastname.firstname","\.",",") | ...

Use the replace function like this:

... | eval event_ID=replace(event_id,"@","%40") | ...
