After Extracting fields for a source type, and spending a lot of time renaming them. I noticed I missed one.

I can go to setting > fields > Field extractions,

I can find my saved extraction by name. But is there any way to edit it?

Hi @pdevosceazure,

You need to go Fields » Field transformations page and find "dsa-unix" to edit fields.

Clicking on the name of the extraction should bring up a dialog box that lets you modify it.
