Hello @DataOrg 

You can have your required part of data during search time by adding below configuration in props.conf.

[YouR_stanZa]
EXTRACT-myData = ^[^>\n]*>(?P<myData>.+)

If in case you want it to be at index time you can use below configuration also.

[YouR_stanZa]
SEDCMD-a=s/(^[^>\n]*>)//g

I hope this will help you.  🙂

Please let me know if you have some special scenario. 

Happy Splunking

🙂

That's what the mode=sed does in my response

| rex mode=sed "s/xmlns.*>/>/"

[DataOrg]

@to4kawa it removes other upcoming data tags also, i just want to remove xmls content from the <ProductionPerformance> tag

Input event:

<EventData><ProductionPerformance xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema xmlns:Extended=http://www.wbf.org/xml/B2MML-V0401-AllExtensions xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance xmlns=http://www.wbf.org/xml/B2MML-V0401></ProductionPerformance>
<date>21/1/2020</date>
<Message>Hello</Message>
</EventData>

Output i want as 

<EventData><ProductionPerformance></ProductionPerformance>
<date>21/1/2020</date>
<Message>Hello</Message>
</EventData>
