Hi,

I am new in splunk and i want to save the value in fields before and after =

for example events look like below
rollnumber=34556
class=12

I want to return rollnumber and class in first field and the number after = in second field.

base search | rex max_match=15 field=_raw "(?P)="

this doesnt work, both values are coming as space.

Your regex seems to be incomplete, could you try:

| rex max_match=15 field=_raw "(?P<field1>\w+)\=(?P<field2>\w+)"
