Hello @muralip543 

You can get all the events having exception_type="Application Exception" by this search. You will get all the event for all the apps.

index="gyev_np" error.exception_type="Application Exception"

if you want to get particular app events then just add one more filter

index="gyev_np" error.exception_type="Application Exception" app_name = "VSIB"

With these event if you want over all count with selected period.
Just add `| stats count`

index="gyev_np" error.exception_type="Application Exception" app_name = "VSIB" | stats count

If you want app wise count then remove app_name filter and add `by app_name`

index="gyev_np" error.exception_type="Application Exception" app_name = "VSIB" | stats count by app_name


In case you need hourly count for selected period then use timechart with span option. Here you will have data for trending chart.

index="gyev_np" error.exception_type="Application Exception" app_name = "VSIB" | timechart count span=1h

 

index="gyev_np" error.exception_type="Application Exception" app_name = "VSIB" | timechart count span=1h by app_name


Just execute above search, you will get idea about search and the search results which you expected.

if you can share your expected search output please share with us so we will help you on it.


Thanks
Happy Splunking

@kamlesh_vaghela  If we want to capture the stats for both application exceptions and system exceptions and success transactions ?

index="gyev_np" | search "app_name" = "VSIB" | stats count(eval(status_code="500")) as Failures count(eval(status_code="200")) as Success   

The above is perfectly working fine but the below one is not working

index="gyev_np" error.exception_type="Application Exception"  error.exception_type="System Exception"  app_name = "VSIB" | stats count 

I want to display both application exception and system exception counts as columns and graphical representation 

Please help me.

 

Thanks in advance

Try this.

index="gyev_np" ( error.exception_type="Application Exception"  OR error.exception_type="System Exception"  ) app_name = "VSIB" | stats count 

 

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.1.1/SearchReference/Search#2._Using_boolean_and_compa...

Try this also for column representation.

 

index="gyev_np" ( error.exception_type="Application Exception"  OR error.exception_type="System Exception"  ) app_name = "VSIB" | stats count(eval('error.exception_type'="Application Exception")) as "Application Exception" count(eval('error.exception_type'="System Exception")) as "System Exception"

 

For graphical representation try below  search with Column, Pie or Bar chart visualisation. 

index="gyev_np" ( error.exception_type="Application Exception"  OR error.exception_type="System Exception"  ) app_name = "VSIB" |chart count by "error.exception_type"

 

Just switch Visualization tab for the same.

Hi, thank you so much for your quick response

actually my requirement is 

we are pushing all our api logs which includes both success transactions and failure transactions to splunk, from the splunk i should find out the count of transactions which are failed i.e. whose exception type is application exception as mentioned above, above is my sample json log for failure transaction.

I have tried the below query:

index="gyev_np" | search "app_name" = "VSIB" | stats count(eval('error.exception_type'="Application Exception")) as count by _time

Please help me here

 

THANK YOU SO MUCH in advance
