I am unable to search my custom fields in Splunk after getting migrated index from normal to federated. do I have to change something in field extractions? or something wrong in migration

Thanks @PaulPanther for replying. can you please let me know if I can check this at user end whether custom fields are present on local and remote searchHeads or I need to take help from our infra team who manages Splunk. Because as far i can see these custom fields are saved in app where i am running search.

If you don't have GUI access to the remote searchhead you must ask your infra team. They should be able to confirm if the custom fields are configured on the remote searchhead.

The missing custom fields are present on local and remote searchHeads?
