I have some events coming in that use a lookup to resolve to an action eg :
Block,block,not sent = blocked
tagged, delivered, logged = delivered
Occasionally a multivalue field appears such as :
Tagged
Logged
OR
Tagged
Block
the Logic should be :
Tagged Logged = delivered
Tagged Block = Block
Trying to figure out how to add this logic to utilise the lookup.
Played around with nomv which creates a single value field but adds a \n so the value becomes : Tagged\nLogged
But then i need to do do a sedcmd to remove the \n and then add the result to the lookup to resolve the desired action.
Is there a better approach in this scenario ?
thx
Hi @Esky73,
the action you are describing is called normalization and it's usually done to normalize logs to CIM compliance.
At first I hint to see if there's an Add-on that already made normalization for your logs, if there isn't I hint to use calculated fields, e.g. something like this:
| eval action=case(action="Block","blocked",action="block","blocked",action="not sent","blocked",action="tagged","delivered", action="delivered","delivered", action="logged","delivered")
About the multivalue, see if it's possible to extract fields in a different way or use "like" in the above condition.
Ciao.
