My Raw log says "message: (c4328dd3-d16e-4df8-a8e6-b2ebcab9d8bc)" 

I wanted to extract everything  inside the  Parentheses ( )

 

Thanks in advance.

| rex "message: \((?<in_parentheseses>[^\)]+)"

 

You can test with

 

| makeresults format=csv data="_raw
message: (c4328dd3-d16e-4df8-a8e6-b2ebcab9d8bc)"
``` data emulation above ```
| rex "message: \((?<in_parentheses>[^\)]+)"
