Hi,

I had been using  search syntax "rename "_raw" AS errortrace" in my custom search but one of my app team needs _raw data to extract some header info.

How can i still pass _raw filed data still with renamin syntax still in place

Thanks

Once a field is renamed the original name no longer exists and cannot be referenced.  All subsequent uses of the field must use the new name.

But you can use field alias.
