index=_audit action=search sourcetype=audittrail search_id=* NOT (user=splunk-system-user) search!="'typeahead*"
| rex "search\=\'(search|\s+)\s(?P<search>[\n\S\s]+?(?=\'))"
| rex field=search "sourcetype\s*=\s*\"*(?<SourcetypeUsed>[^\s\"]+)"
| rex field=search "index\s*=\s*\"*(?<IndexUsed>[^\s\"]+)"
