After reading your question and the back and forth comments, I think what you are looking for is this: You write a modular input which acts as a network service listening for your .NET objects. Your PowerShell script is altered to emit the .NET objects over the network, to your mod input service Your PowerShell script is called via whatever external mechanism If you can't alter your PS script, this won't work. I can't think of a way to tell a modular input to watch another process's stdout, where that process starts/stops via some mechanism external to Splunk. ... View more

I'm willing to bet your UI is configured to show events in ET. That would explain why a time that you'd expect to be at 12:00 would be displayed on your side as 07:00. To check this: Your Name (on the top bar of the page) -> Account Settings Examine what's shown for Time zone under the Global heading. ... View more

Any chance your events are in a different timezone than your user preference, thus the time value shown for the event is different than the time of the event itself, which is what would be used by bin ? ... View more

You can actually work around this, but you need to know that when an inner search returns a field named search , that value will be dropped in directly where the subsearch is. So this should work: index=main eventtype=bad_traffic | eval contactlist = [| whois src_ip | search attribute=*.contact.name | stats values(value) as contacts | eval search="\"".mvjoin(contacts, ",")."\"" ] | table src_ip, errormsg, contactlist The quote fun in search="\"".mvjoin.. surrounds the list of contacts with double quotes, so that eval knows it's setting the field to a string. ...

I don't have an answer, but I wonder if it would help you (and us) track down the issue if you look at the events that are not returned, perhaps with a search like this: index="index1" tdr=tdr1 OR tdr=tdr2 transaction id | foreach * [ rex field=<<FIELD>> mode=sed "s/{|}//g"] | eval _time=strptime(Qtime,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%3N") | eval LoS=.... | search LoS = 1 | table ..... It's worth pointing out that since we can't see your eval expression for LoS, it's tough to see the full picture of why searching for !=1 and !={1} may return different sets of results. ...

<title> isn't valid inside <search> , so it needs to be moved out.

Here is a run anywhere dashboard that uses a recent answers post's sample data to demonstrate what I think you're looking for: <form> <label>622761</label> <fieldset submitButton="false"> <input type="checkbox" token="filter_expired" searchWhenChanged="true"> <label></label> <choice value="yes">Check for expired</choice> <delimiter> </delimiter> <change> <condition value="yes"> <eval token="checked_result_value">"Status=Expired"</eval> </condition> <condition> <eval token="checked_result_value">""</eval> </condition> </change> </input> </fieldset> <row> <panel> <table> <search> <query>| makeresults | eval Class_Date="2018-1-1" | append [| makeresults | eval Class_Date="2018-12-12"] | append [| makeresults | eval Class_Date="2017-1-2"] | append [| makeresults | eval Class_Date="2017-1-3"] | eval class_plus_one_year = relative_time(strptime(Class_Date, "%Y-%m-%d"), "+1y") | eval Status = if(now() > class_plus_one_year, "Expired", "Valid") | search $checked_result_value$</query> <earliest>-24h@h</earliest> <latest>now</latest> <sampleRatio>1</sampleRatio> </search> <option name="count">20</option> <option name="dataOverlayMode">none</option> <option name="drilldown">none</option> <option name="percentagesRow">false</option> <option name="rowNumbers">false</option> <option name="totalsRow">false</option> <option name="wrap">true</option> </table> </panel> </row> </form> ...
