Data looks like this

# grep 28969 request.log
22/Jul/2016:15:09:54 +0200 [28969] -> GET /libs/granite/csrf/token.json HTTP/1.1
22/Jul/2016:15:09:54 +0200 [28969] <- 200 application/json 4ms

[xxxxxx] is the common (field extracted as RequestID)

lines where -> GET exist, I want to return the URL (field extracted as URL)
lines where <- [0-9][0-9][0-9] is present, I want to return just the final field (4ms) as RequestTime

Result should look like

28969 /libs/granite/csrf/token.json 4ms

Try like this

your base search | rex "\]\s(-\>\s+GET+\s(?<URL>[^\s]+)" | rex "\]\s(-\>\s+([0]{3})+\s([^\s]+)(?<RequestTime>\w+)" | stats values(URL) as URL values(RequestTime) as RequestTime by RequestID
