Good Day,

I'm attempting to create a label for different search responses.

Example:
if search 'A' finds error "500", Field B. is populated with "test1"
if search 'A' finds error "400", Field B. is populated with "test2"

and soo on.

You could do something like this:

... | eval B = case(search finds error "500", "test1", search finds error "400", "test2)
