Splunk Search

Why is the top command not working when searching in two indexes?

Hello all,

For some reason, the search below isn't working for me... I am trying to search for the Top 25 Business Units that have triggered a DLP incident and sort it by those incidents... Unsure if it's the lack of caffeine, but I was under the impression this would work...

(index=dlp OR index=msad) (sourcetype=intel:dlp OR sourcetype=ActiveDirectory)  IncidentType="*" department="*" 
| Top 25 department
| sort by IncidentType

Greatly appreciate your inputs.

use double quote when for sourcetype=intel:dlp ---- sourcetype="intel:dlp"

Thank you puneethgowda - but still no data... I've been trying other constants but no results.

Nope...

This is when the data comes...

(index=dlp OR index=msad) (sourcetype=intel:dlp OR sourcetype=ActiveDirectory)

Try this

(index=dlp OR index=msad) (sourcetype=intel:dlp OR sourcetype=ActiveDirectory) IncidentType="" department="" | top 25 department by IncidentType | sort by IncidentType
