Abstract

A method includes displaying events that correspond to search results of a search query, the events comprising data items of event attributes, the events displayed in a table. The table includes columns corresponding to an event attribute, rows corresponding events, cells populated data items, and interactive regions corresponding to at least one data item and selectable to add one or more commands to the search query. A reference event attribute is determined based on an analysis of a data object. A supplemental column corresponding to a supplemental event attribute is added to the table based on the reference event attribute. Supplemental interactive regions are added to the table and correspond to supplemental data items.

Claims (37)

1 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

causing display of a set of events that are search results of a search query representing a plurality of commands, each event corresponding to a portion of raw machine data associated with a timestamp, the display of the set of events being in a table format that includes:

one or more columns, each column comprising data items of an event attribute, the data items being of the set of events; and

a plurality of rows forming cells with the one or more columns, each cell comprising one or more of the data items of the event attribute of a corresponding column;

causing display of a list of command entries corresponding to the plurality of commands associated with the search query; and

based on a selection of a command entry from the list of command entries, updating the set of events to correspond to commands in the list of commands listed up to the selected command entry.

2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the selection of the command entry specifies an endpoint in the search query.

3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the updating of the set of events comprises displaying events that correspond to the commands in the list of commands listed up to the selected command entry.

4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the endpoint is directly after the selected command entry.

5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising adding a new command entry to the list of command entries.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the new command entry is automatically selected when added to the list of command entries.

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein adding the new command entry to the list of command entries is based on a user selection of an interactive region in the table format.

8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 further comprising executing the commands in the list of commands listed up to the selected command entry to update the set of events.

9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising visually indicating the selected command entry within the list of command entries.

10 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein based on the selection of the command entry, causing display of a form enabling modification of at least one command represented by the selected command entry.

11 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising storing metadata associated with the command entry selected from the list of command entries.

12 . One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having instructions stored thereon, the instructions, when executed by a processor of a computing device, to cause the computing device to perform a method comprising:

causing display of a set of events that are search results of a search query representing a plurality of commands, each event corresponding to a portion of raw machine data associated with a timestamp, the display of the set of events being in a table format that includes:

one or more columns, each column comprising data items of an event attribute, the data items being of the set of events; and

a plurality of rows forming cells with the one or more columns, each cell comprising one or more of the data items of the event attribute of a corresponding column;

causing display of a list of command entries corresponding to the plurality of commands associated with the search query; and

based on a selection of a command entry from the list of command entries, updating the set of events to correspond to commands in the list of commands listed up to the selected command entry.

13 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 12 , wherein the selection of the command entry specifies an endpoint in the search query.

14 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 13 , wherein the updating of the set of events comprises displaying events that correspond to the commands in the list of commands listed up to the selected command entry.

15 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 13 , wherein the endpoint is directly after the selected command entry.

16 . A computer-implemented system comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory having instructions stored thereon, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, to cause the system to perform a method comprising:

causing display of a set of events that are search results of a search query representing a plurality of commands, each event corresponding to a portion of raw machine data associated with a timestamp, the display of the set of events being in a table format that includes:

one or more columns, each column comprising data items of an event attribute, the data items being of the set of events; and

a plurality of rows forming cells with the one or more columns, each cell comprising one or more of the data items of the event attribute of a corresponding column;

causing display of a list of command entries corresponding to the plurality of commands associated with the search query; and

based on a selection of a command entry from the list of command entries, updating the set of events to correspond to commands in the list of commands listed up to the selected command entry.

17 . The computer-implemented system of claim 16 , further comprising executing the commands in the list of commands listed up to the selected command entry to update the set of events.

18 . The computer-implemented system of claim 16 , further comprising visually indicating the selected command entry within the list of command entries.

19 . The computer-implemented system of claim 16 , wherein based on the selection of the command entry, causing display of a form enabling modification of at least one command represented by the selected command entry.

20 . The computer-implemented system of claim 16 , further comprising storing metadata associated with the command entry selected from the list of command entries.
