Listing out dates and appending to search??

I'm trying to list out all dates between my time picker and have that as a column in my table. I do both things individually but just not together 🙂

index="myindex"
| rex "jobID (?<jobid>\d+)"
| rex "dayID (?<dayid>\d+)"
| eval daydt=strptime(dayid, "%Y%m%d")
| eval daydt=strftime(daydt,"%Y-%m-%d")
| transaction jobid dayid endswith="data consumed for jobID"
|eval duration=tostring(duration,"duration")
| eval status=if(closed_txn=="0","Complete","Incomplete")
| appendpipe
[ |gentimes start=-1|addinfo|eval date=strftime(mvrange(info_min_time,info_max_time,"1d"),"%F")|mvexpand date
]
| sort -date
| table date closed_txn daydt _time duration

 

Can someone tell me whats wrong here?

What do you exactly mean with "all dates between my time picker"? What is the output of your SPL? What did you expect? Could you give some example data?

if I select last 30 days - I want one column that has a row for each day regardless of what my main search has

Should this "day column" go on a row of its own? What if you have more than one data rows for a particular day?

Maybe you want to have a look at the "bin" command (https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/SearchReference/Bin) to group your events by day with a "span=1d" parameter.

What should be in that one column? Can you mock it up?
