Hi @rczone

Try this

You can use below regex:

| rex field=<FIELD_NAME> "\[0:(?<id>[a-z0-9]+)@(?<name>[a-z@.]+) 0\]" 

Test query:

| makeresults | eval test="[01/05/2020 13:06:21] BAUAJM_I_30031 Client [CA WAAE Auto:15515][5][[email protected]:50019:12.304.593.10] [0x80c91100][02/05/2020 13:06:21.8474][0:[email protected]@hostname.com 0] API ID [34] execution started.&[01/05/2020 13:06:21] BAUAJM_I_30032 Client [CA WAAE Auto:15509][5][[email protected]:12345:19.304.293.10] [0x28bbbfff][02/05/2020 13:06:21.6946][0:[email protected]@hostname.com 0] API ID [66] execution completed.

Assuming those values always located in the same relative position( 7th value from starting which are enclosed between square brackets), give this a try

your base search 
| rex "^\[([^\[]+\[){6}[^:]+:(?<id>[^\@]+)@(?<host>\S+)"
