I would like to know how can I use the urldecorder command for all URLs in the reqHdr.referer field (Akamai)

index=akamai
| eval newfield = urldecode("https%3a%2f%2fwww....................%2f")
| table newfield

I've tried and the field doesn't show the URLs, just the name reqHdr.referer

Tried it with single quotes around it?

Don't use double quotes "around the field name. Try without quotes. If that doesn't work, use single quotes '.

Thanks for the help, with single quotes it worked.

Using this query:

index=c4_akamai
| eval newfield = urldecode("reqHdr.referer")
| table newfield

o resultado é:

newfield
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer
reqHdr.referer

Eu usando apenas uma URL de referencia dentro do campo reqHdr.referer o resultado é:

index=c4_akamai
| eval newfield = urldecode("https%3a%2f%2fwww.*******.com.br%2f")
| table newfield

newfield
https://www.**********.com.br/
https://www.**********.com.br/
https://www.**********.com.br/
https://www.**********.com.br/
https://www.**********.com.br/
https://www.**********.com.br/
https://www.**********.com.br/

In this case, if I specify a single URL in this field it will bring me the result of the decoded URL.
However, the field has thousands of other URLs.

The result I hope is that all URLs are shown decrypted.
