Event log Tune-Up variables

Post by Kris »

We use HM to detect Windows events, i.e. OWA login failures.
It would be nice to be able to extract relevant items from the event, like:

Example:
%Account Name%
%Failure Reason%
%Source Network Address%

Or maybe even create your own library of variables.

There are thousand different formats (messages) in Windows event log, how to create variables for each event?
We can add some operators for processing..

Where do you want to use such data?
- Optional status processing?
- Expression to start "advanced" action?
- parameters of some action (e.g. e-mail template)?

Hi Alex,

The data I mentioned would be handy to tune up the reply, so the quick-log shows these fields instead of the normal reply.

We added new operators:
- getlinewith
- getlinestarts
- getlineends
- gettagval

So you may use expression like ["%SuggestedReply%" getlinewith "Account Name:"]

If you are using version 12.84, contact support@ks-soft.net, we will provide update.

Hi Alex,

The following operators won't help in my specific case.
- getlinewith
- getlinestarts
because the line I'm looking for (containing "Account Name:") appears multiple times. I need the second occurrance....

Not sure on how to use the 'gettagval' operator?
Is this the XML tag?
Something like:
["%SuggestedReply%" gettagval "<Data Name='TargetUserName'>"]
But that doesn't seem to work...

Thanks!

You can use several commands in expression.
Please send to support example of text you want to parse and field you need to get.
