This should do it.

 

index=APP_SERVER- source=API_LOG "Error while create record for customer id*" 
| rex "customer id : (?<custId>.*\w+)" 
| search NOT [search index=APP_SERVER- source=API_LOGS  "Successfully created record for customer id*" |rex "customer id : (?<custId>.*\w+)" | return custId]
| dedup custId 
| table custId
