Hello,
I have a question about extracting dates from fields for comparison purposes. I am trying to write a search that shows new windows software installations over the past 30 days.
Currently, the dates installedapps.bat file that is part of the Splunk App for Windows comes back as 20170622,20170627,etc... which is YearMonthDate. I want to compare the InstallDate to Today's date.
What would be the best way to search for only software that has been installed in the past 30 days? I cannot use the _time field because that is just the date the script was run, not the date of the software installation.
Thanks in advance for the help!
