Hi,

I am planning to capture all the URIs with word chaser (case in sensitive).

I have used this
| regex uri="(?i)Chaser(?:[^\"])"

but did not get any results. do i need to include anything in the regex?
Thanks for your help.

Below are few examples.

/gdfgfd/N-/Ntt-MILWAUKEEFUEL?pm_sp=CS_Chaser--PO_L3_Multi--werwerdfg
/CHASER-STAKES-rOutdoor-brother-Retractable-6trJ3?we_sp=IO--PDI--RR_VTV70300505&cm_vc=WSPRRZ1

I'm a little confused. Do you have a field called uri in the events, or are you trying to extract a field from the events and name that uri?

Would either of these satisfy your needs?

In the rex command you need to remove the space before and after uri

| rex "(?i)(?P< uri >/\S*Chaser\S*)" 

or

| regex uri="(?i)/\S*Chaser\S*"

Hi Dave,

I have field called uri and i want to get all the uri which contains "Chaser" in the uri filed. i want the regex. I tried regex uri="(?i)/\S*Chaser\S*" but did not work

When I try and execute your regex command I receive the error Mismatched ']'. Do you receive that error, or is there a typo in your post?

If you are getting the mismatched ] error, you probably need to escape the " character. So your regex command would become

 | regex uri="(?i)Chaser(?:[^\"])"

the uri have - in them do you think regex would catch those characters as well?
