@indeed_2000 This one works for method. 

<your_search>
| rex "User\:\s+(?<user>\S+)\s+\|\|\s+method:\s+(?<method>\S+)$" 
| table user method

Hi @indeed_2000 

Can you try this?  

 

<your_search_goes_here> 
| rex "User\:\s+(?<user>\S+)\s\|\|\smodule\:\s+(?<module>.+)$" 
| table user module

thank you for answer, it's not work on all user & module name (both might have capital word or special character)

e.g. 

2021-07-14 23:53:23,353 INFO [APP] User: A0000@#0000 || module: setNameDescription

2021-07-14 23:53:23,353 INFO [APP] User: A.Kay || module: setNameDescription

2021-07-14 23:53:23,353 INFO [APP] User: b_Kay || module: setNameDescription

 

any idea?

Not a problem. use:

 

rex "User\:(?<user>.+)\s\|\|\s(module\:(?<module>.+)|method\:(?<method>.+))"

@indeed_2000 What you have originally provided having different log structure. User: || module: 

These new logs having User: || method hence rex provided only works for module. Which one are correct events?
