Ingest processor rex problem

[Keith_NZ]

Hi,

I am new to Ingest Processor and have had some success but am having an issue with the rex command so I have created a very simple example copied from the manual here https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SCS/current/SearchReference/RexCommandExamples#2._Regular_expr...

But I am getting this error:

Any ideas why?

Thanks

1. Traditional SPL: (?<name>pattern)
2. SPL2 (Edge/Ingest Processor): (?P<name>pattern)

Thanks Sainag,

Just confusing doco then as this page: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SCS/current/SearchReference/rexcommandexample

which is all about SPL2 

in section 2 has examples without the P after the ? 

but section 3 has the P

all good, thanks
