Does the Google Maps app work with Splunk 6.2?

Hello, I installed Splunk 6.2 today and didn`t find the Google Maps app in Splunkbase, so I downloaded it from the web and added it to Splunk, but I found something wrong while using it.

For example, I use the syntax below in a Splunk search and it works well returning about 2000 events, but the same syntax returns nothing in the Google Maps app.

sourcetype="result" ip= | geoip ip

Sometimes it returns an error "KeyError: 'ip'". I am sure I have created the ip field which contains ip only.

I wonder whether the Google Maps app can be used on Splunk 6.2. Can anybody be so kind and help me?

Alternative,Splunk 6.x and above has built-in maps .Search for iplocation. Here's an example search
sourcetype=iplogs|iplocation ip|geostats count by ip. Hope this helps

Hi @bingoNewer

I looked through apps.splunk.com and found the Google Maps app here https://apps.splunk.com/app/368/

The page also shows that the app is only compatible with Splunk versions 5.0, 4.3 and 4.2, so that's probably why it's not playing well on 6.2.
