Why virustotal doesn't fill in values?

bt149
Path Finder

Using the "virustotal" cmd and it appears that if there are multiple events that have the same file_hash that only one of the events will "populate" the field/values from the virustotal cmd.  I can't post events.

Example would be:

event 1:

_time=08/06/2023 07:00:00
dest=abc1
file_hash=45vv678
file_name=badguy.dll
file_path=my_path 
vt_* will be populated


event 2:

_time=08/06/2023 07:150:00
dest=abc2
file_hash=45vv678
file_name=badguy.dll
file_path=my_path
vt_* - nothing will be populated


event 3:

_time=08/06/2023 07:30:00
dest=abc3
file_hash=45vv678
file_name=badguy.dll
file_path=my_path
vt_* - nothing will be populated

I know the spl is fine as if I were to change the time picker to that of just the 2nd or 3rd event, all the vt_ fields would be populated.  It looks like this is the expected behavior.  Thanks in advance.

@bt149 - I'm sure you are using a custom App here as mentioned by @yuanliu 

Kindly post your search query here (you can hide sensitive data if any in the SPL). And then we might spot any issues if any.

There is no virustotal command in Search Commands.  If you are using a special app that provides this command, you should go to that app's forum for help.
