Extraction Preview Tab

The Extraction Preview tab in the bottom panel of the Parser Details page shows all of the fields and values this parser extracted from recently uploaded log lines. The preview tab provides this extraction information without the new to open a specific parser and follow the edit workflow to find it.

You can use the options above the sample data to control how data is displayed. You can display all the sample log lines, or display them in subsets of matched or non-matching logs. You can choose to wrap the log lines or to display them in a list or table view. You can also use the search field to display only log lines that contain a specific field or value.

If there are currently no logs to show for this parser, you can import new sample log data directly from this preview tab, without entering the parser edit workflow.

To import a new sample:

  1. Click New log sample in the options at the top of the tab. A New Log Sample dialog box opens.
