provided that that is the _raw, if you just need to find the events you can use the regex command:

| makeresults

| eval _raw="EXT_CODE5=PC099|EXT_CODE22=BC054|EXT_CODE4=ZC018|GEN_CODE11=ZV010"
| regex "(EXT|GEN)_CODE\d{1,3}="

regex "EXT_CODE\d{1,3}="
This is working for me , but i want both EXT_CODE & GEN_CODE followed by 1/2/3 digit followed (Eg: GEN_CODE017 (or) GEN_CODE001 (or) GEN_CODE999 (or) EXT_CODE017 (or) EXT_CODE001 (or) EXT_CODE999 (or) ......)

Missed that part

(EXT|GEN)_CODE\d{1,3}=

should work for that

log1: index="zync*"|EXT_CODE2=AB003|EXT_CODE35=BC003|EXT_CODE4=CA010|GEN_CODE14=CD010
log2: index="zync*"CDT|EXT_CODE4=XY005|EXT_CODE42=DE040|EXT_CODE4=ZQ019|GEN_CODE11=PY016
log3: index="zync*"|EXT_CODE5=PC099|EXT_CODE22=BC054|EXT_CODE4=ZC018|GEN_CODE11=ZV010

from multiple logs, i have to get above logs which are having EXT_CODE followed by 1/2/3 digit followed (Eg: EXT_CODE017 (or) EXT_CODE001 (or) EXT_CODE999 (or) ......)
