Taking Value of One Field, Adding Text, And Comparing Against Another Field

Greetings,

I want to exclude search results if a field contains a value compared against another field with additional text added.  So it would look something like this:

Field1=value

Field2=Field1+[text]

Field3=[value2]

Exclude results where Field2=Field1+[text] and Field3=[value2]

Can anyone tell me what the syntax in Splunk would be?  Thanks.

Hello @SplunkLunk ,

Please try something like this:

| your base query

| eval match_field = if(match(field2,"regex to match the values that you want to find", "Match","No Match"))

| where NOT (match_field="Match" AND Field3=[value2])

| rest of your query

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

S
