Abstract: In embodiments of field value search drill down, a search system exposes a search interface that displays one or more events returned as a search result set. A field-value pair can be emphasized in the field-value pairs of an event displayed in the search interface, and a menu is displayed with search options that are selectable to operate on the emphasized field-value pair of the event. The menu includes the search options to add search criteria of the emphasized field-value pair to a search command in a search bar of the search interface, exclude the search criteria of the emphasized field-value pair from a search, or create a new data search based on the emphasized field-value pair. A selection of one of the search options in the menu can be received, and the search command in the search bar is updated based on the search option that is selected.

Abstract: First one or more values are extracted from a plurality of events using a first extraction rule. The extracted first one or more values are assigned to a first field of the plurality of events as a first set of field-data item pairs. Second one or more values are extracted from the plurality of the events using a second extraction rule. The second extraction rule identifies the second one or more values and a field label corresponding to the second one or more values in the extracted first one or more values of the first set of field-data item pairs. The extracted second one or more values are assigned to a second field of the plurality of events as a second set of field-data item pairs. The field label extracted using the second extraction rule or a modified version thereof may be assigned to the second field.

Abstract: Custom communication alert techniques are described. A triggering condition is detected by one or more computing devices that is found by searching data using one or more extraction rules of a late-binding schema. Responsive to the detection of the triggering condition of the alert, a communication is formed by the one or more computing devices that corresponds to the alert and that includes one or more tokens based on one or more values of the data taken from fields defined by the one or more extraction rules. The communication is caused to be transmitted by the one or more computing device via a network for receipt by at least one computing device of an intended recipient of the communication.

Abstract: A facility for defining an event subtype using examples is described. The facility displays events identified among machine-generated data. The facility receives user input selecting a first subset of the events as examples of an event subtype. In response to receiving the user input, the facility displays a second subset of the events predicted to belong to the event subtype on the basis of the examples of the event subtype.

Abstract: Event time selection output techniques are described. In one or more implementations, one or more inputs are received, at one or more computing devices, that involve interaction associated with a particular one of a plurality of events via a user interface, in which the plurality of events result from a search of data, each of the plurality of events include the data that is associated with a respective point in time, and the one or more inputs specify a relative time in relation to the respective point in time of the particular event. A determination is made as to which of the plurality of events correspond to the specified relative time by the one or more computing devices and a result of the determination is output by the one or more computing devices for display in the user interface.

Abstract: A based on a selection by a user of first one or more values of one or more events displayed in a graphical interface, an extraction rule is automatically determined that is capable of extracting a field label-value pair at least partially within at least the selected one or more values. An option is displayed that correspond to the determined extraction rule in the graphical interface. Based on the user selecting the option in the graphical interface, display is caused of second one or more values of one or more field label-value pairs extracted from the one or more events using the extraction rule. The one or more events may be displayed in a table format, and the first one or more value may be selected by the user selecting one or more cells, columns, or text portions in the table format.

Abstract: First one or more values are extracted from a plurality of events using a first extraction rule. The extracted first one or more values are assigned to a first field of the plurality of events as a first set of field-data item pairs and a field label is assigned to the first field. Second one or more values and a field label corresponding to the second one or more values are extracted from the plurality of the events using a second extraction rule, where the extracted field label corresponds to the assigned field label of the first field. The extracted second one or more values are assigned to a second field of the plurality of events as a second set of field-data item pairs, thereby distinguishing the extracted second one or more values from the extracted first one or more values.
