Hi All, I have query below that needs to modified for sub string matching condition -

splunk query:

 

sourcetype=source1 id1="*" OR sourcetype=source2 id2="*" OR sourcetype=source3 id2="*"
Id=coalesce(id1,id2,id3)
| stats count by Id sourcetype
| xyseries Id sourcetype count | fillnull source1 source2 source3 value="Not exists"
| table source1 source2 source3

 

when 
id1=F80C05F3-19AF-40D3-AC73-19544E928D21
id2=XOP-F80C05F3-19AF-40D3-AC73-19544E928D21
id3=ABC-F80C05F3-19AF-40D3-AC73-19544E928D21


The query above needs to be modified for substring matching based on id1 existing in id2 or id3 and it needs to return the results, how can this query below be modified?

(sourcetype=source1 id1="*") OR (sourcetype=source2 id2="*") OR (sourcetype=source3 id2="*")
| eval Id=coalesce(id1,id2,id3)
| eval ID=mvindex(split(Id,"-"),-1)
| stats count by ID sourcetype
| xyseries ID sourcetype count |
| fillnull source1 source2 source3 value="Not exists"
| table source1 source2 source3

hi @msrama5 
How about this?

Is the difference always a prefix that ends with a hyphen?

Is the prefix always three characters?

Is the ID always 36 characters long?

If so, then use this-

| eval matchId=coalesce(id1,id2,id3)
| eval matchId=substr(matchId,len(matchId)-35,36)
