HI All,

Query1:

(FAILED) COM source="/home/test/test.log"  | rex field=_raw "^(?:[^,\n]*,){3}(?P<sender>\+\d+)" | dedup sender | table sender

Then the output will become
111
112
113
123

Query2:

login COM  | rex field=_raw "(?<number>\+\d+)"   | rex field=_raw "(?<Version>\w+\/\d+\.\d+\.\d*)"   | dedup number | search Version="1.0.4" | table number

Then the output will become
101
111
123
124

I would like to Join these two tables and generate the output as below.
111
123

I have tried this command by combining these two queries, but there is no result at all. Any suggestions?

(FAILED) COM source="/home/test/test.log"  | rex field=_raw "^(?:[^,\n]*,){3}(?P<sender>\+\d+)" | dedup sender | table sender | JOIN sender [search login COM  | rex field=_raw "(?<number>\+\d+)"   | rex field=_raw "(?<Version>\w+\/\d+\.\d+\.\d*)"   | dedup number | search Version="1.0.4" | table number]

Don't think of your data as tables, because they aren't. Using JOIN or INTERSECT actually runs multiple searches over the same data. It's likely you can accomplish what you want in a single search, but what you've provided is pretty vague so I can't really provide a good example. Something like this:

COM (FAILED AND source="/home/test/test.log") OR login
| rex "^(?:[^,\n]*,){3}(?P<sender>\+\d+)"
| rex "(?<sender>\+\d+)"
| eval login=if(searchmatch("login"), 1, 0)
| eval failed=if(searchmatch("FAILED"), 1, 0)
| stats max(login) as login max(failed) as failed by sender
| search login=1 AND failed=1
| table sender

The problem with the specific thing you attempted is that you're telling it to join on the 'sender' field, but the subsearch only outputs one field: 'number'. So there is no 'sender' for it to join on.
