Splunk Search

Spliting single filed into multiple fields based on different delimiters

Hi,

I have the following value in a field which needs to be split into multiple fields,

Classname: 

abc.TestAutomation.NNNN.Specs.Prod/NDisableTransactionalAccessUsers.#()::TestAssembly:abc.TestAutomation

Required output:

Productname : abc.TestAutomation.NNNN.Specs.Prod

Feature name : NDisableTransactionalAccessUsers

Project : TestAssembly:abc.TestAutomation

I have been trying to extract the values into my fields using REX command, but I am failing.

source="Reports.csv"  index="prod_reports_data" sourcetype="ReportsData"                                                      |rex "classname(?<Productname>/*)\.(?<Featurename>#*)\.(?<Project>.*)" |table classname Productname Featurename Project

While I execute this command, there are no results.  I am very new to Splunk, can someone guide. 

Thanks.

You are getting there, have a look at this query - past the entire query into your search window and you can see how the rex statement works.

| makeresults 
| eval classname="abc.TestAutomation.NNNN.Specs.Prod/NDisableTransactionalAccessUsers.#()::TestAssembly:abc.TestAutomation" 
| rex field=classname "(?<Productname>[^/]*)\/(?<Featurename>[^#]*)#\(\)::(?<Project>.*)" 
| table classname Productname Featurename Project

Note that the regex syntax [^/]* is saying 'find me all characters that are NOT / - different to the way you had written it.

The delimiter #():: is specified as it, but you could do that differently if you expect something different.

I was not sure if classname was a field and whether it was C or c, but hopefully you get the picture.

Hope this helps.
