I'm a newbie to SPlunk REX trying to do some dashboards and need help in extracting fields of a particular variable
i read old articles in SPlunk old questions but couldn't figured it out..
Here in my case i want to extract only KB_List":"KB000119050,KB000119026,KB000119036" values to a column

Expected output: as a table

KB_Listed
KB000119050,KB000119026,KB000119036

i have tried:

| `rex field=_raw "KB_List\":\"(?<KB_List>[^\"])\""`

try this:

.. | rex "KB_List\":\"(?<KB_Listed>[^\"]+)" | table KB_Listed

you are not putting the extracted value in the field. Copy the above query and run as it is.
