Hi,

I have data like these entries

link          id                     parent     name
----          ---                     --------     ---------

link1      311                                   email.eml

link1      312                  311         abc.rar

link2      315                  312         xyz.exe

 

that I want to combine into this

 

link                       id                              parent              name
----                       ---                              --------               ---------

link1, link2      315, 312, 311        312, 311         xyz.exe, abc.rar, email.eml

 

Combining condition is based on id and parent.

311 is the parent, 312 is child of 311, 315 is child of 312 ('grandchild' of 311)

Thank you in advance for your help!

Oops
I understand your explanation.

That's difficult to achieve with Splunk.
Please refer to the URL below for details.

If you have other conditions, you may be able to do it.
Example
- This log is an experiment log and can be identified for each experiment.
- Logs that are always parent and child will be displayed below.
