How does it work in the search window?

Select Create field in the search window toolbar, then select the Hostname root suffix operation. You need to specify one argument:

Argument

Data type

Hostname mandatory

string

The data type of the values in the new field is string.

...

Example

Rw ui textbox macro
typeinfo

The examples in this article use values in a data table generated from the following CSV file.

View file
nameSample.data.csv

If you want to try the example for yourself, download the file and upload it to your domain by clicking Data upload in the navigation panel. Name the new table my.upload.sample.data and select Current date as Date parsing type. Learn more about uploading data in Uploading log file.

After receiving the confirmation message, you can access the table from the Finder, selecting my → upload → sample → data. When you upload data from a file, all the information is included in a single column called message. To split the values into different columns, you can use the Split operation. Click Toggle Query Editor in the search window toolbar and paste the following LINQ query to save time:

from my.upload.sample.data
select split(message, ";", 15) as Hostnames

...

In the my.upload.sample.data table, we want to get the root suffixes of the hostnames in our Hostnames field. To do it, we will create a new field using the Hostname root suffix operation.

...

Use the operator select... as...  and add the operation syntax to create the new column. This is the syntax for the Hostname root suffix operation:

  • rootsuffix(string)

Example

You can copy the following LINQ script and try the above example on the my.upload.sample.data table. Keep in mind you must download the CSV file above.

Code Block
from my.upload.sample.data
select split(message, ";", 15) as Hostnames
select rootsuffix(Hostnames) as root_suffix
