I have an event value like this  2021-02-15 18:07:33,936, where the last value after comma(936) means the response time in ms. i tried to extract that value and want to average response time but it did not work.

how i can extract the value after comma from that field. i tried something like this 

avg(mvindex(split(TimeStamp,","),-1)) as AverageResponse

TimeStamp=2021-02-15 18:07:33,936

 

Best Regards

Hi @foysal0124,

you can extract the values between commas using a regex and then calculate average using the stats command, something like this:

Your_search
| rex ",(?<response_time>\d+),"
| stats avg(response_time) AS average

if in your logs there's the possibility to have also other numbers between commas, you have to use a just a little more complex regex like this:

Your_search
| rex "^\d+-\d+-\d+\s+\d+:\d+:\d+,(?<response_time>\d+),"
| stats avg(response_time) AS average

that you can test at https://regex101.com/r/q4VyFQ/1

Ciao.

Hi @foysal0124,

You use rex command like below;

| rex field=TimeStamp "\,(?<AverageResponse>\d+)"
