I need to filter a list of timestamps which are less than _time. this works: | makeresults count=1 | eval timestamps = mvappend("1570000000", "1570000020") | eval older = mvfilter(timestamps < 1570... See more...
I need to filter a list of timestamps which are less than _time. this works: | makeresults count=1 | eval timestamps = mvappend("1570000000", "1570000020") | eval older = mvfilter(timestamps < 1570000010)   but the compared value is whatever is in _time.  this does not work: | makeresults count=1 | eval timestamps = mvappend("1570000000", "1570000020") | eval _time = 1570000010 | eval older = mvfilter(timestamps < _time)   I know timestamps work, because this does work: | makeresults count=1 | eval timestamps = mvappend("1570000000", "1570000020") | eval older = mvfilter(timestamps < now())   Why does now() and static values work, but this does not: | makeresults count=1 | eval timestamps = mvappend("1570000000", "1570000020") | eval now_time = now() | eval older = mvfilter(timestamps < now_time)   How can i get a variable in there to compare, since i need to compare the list to _time?
Unfortunately, it's the same with other indexes as well, including _* indexes. We tried with another user ID, and the issue is still the same.
@Bar_Ronen I would be interested.

Hi Community, I'm exploring ways to ingest data into Splunk Cloud from a Amazon s3 Bucket which has multiple directories and multiple files to be ingested onto Splunk. Now, I have assessed the Generic s3, SQS-s3 and the Data Manager Inputs for AWS available on Splunk but am not getting the required outcome. My use case is given below: There's a s3 bucket named as exampledatastore, in that there's a directory named as statichexcodedefinition, in that there're multiple message Ids and Dates. The s3 example structure is given below: s3://exampledatastore/statichexcodedefinition/{messageId}/functionname/{date}/* - functionnameattribute Where the {messageId} and the {date} values are dynamic. And I have a start date to begin with but the messageId varies. Please can you assist me on this on how to get the data into Splunk. Many Thanks!
Have you tried other indexes? Or other users?
Very strange indeed - it works fine for me (same version). Are you trying this in a dashboard or just in the search app?

Yes it should allow full access to waf_123456_prod and restrict access to opco_yes_summary only where service=JUNIPER-HBEU-ACCESS. Yes, you can add more services. Make sure service is an indexed field in opco_yes_summary. If it’s extracted at search time, srchFilter may not work. Regards, Prewin Splunk Enthusiast | Always happy to help!

extracted service field from raw data and ingested it into summary index so that it will pick service field values. Then I will use this field in srchFilter to restrict users. Below is authorise.conf what I have given. [role_opco_yes_123456_prod] importRoles = user srchIndexesAllowed = waf_123456_prod, opco_yes_summary srchIndexesDefault = waf_123456_prod srchFilter = (index::waf_123456_prod) OR (index::opco_yes_summary service::JUNIPER-HBEU-ACCESS)   Will this help me or any issue or any changes need to do? Sometimes need to add 1 or 2 services. Is it possible?  Note - Try to give = in srchFilter while testing in UI, but it thrown error like we can't give = can only give :: can I still give = in backend ultimately I need to write and push it from the backend not from UI.

@Karthikeya  Change the index name Since its summary index, i would suggest to use collect command to copy your data. 1 - Create new index called opco_yes_summary 2 -Search and use collect to copy index=waf_opco_yes_summary | collect index=opco_yes_summary 3 - Verify the data index=opco_yes_summary 4 - Once verified, Delete old index.   Restricting users based on the apps from summary index I would say creating separate indexes per app might be a nightmare. As a workaround, Can we consider creating tagging field for summary events if there is no specific field. For eg: field app_name Then create a role based filter. Eg: [role_appA] srchFilter = index=opco_yes_summary app_name="AppA" This ideally ensures users only see data for their app, even if they run index=* But need to avoid “All non-internal indexes” in Roles.   Anyway this needs to be tested and verified, but it might be a good starting point.
