  • 1.  Log Source Management App - Advanced filters

    Posted Wed April 22, 2020 09:15 AM
    I belive I have seen a demo of the Log Source Management App where the host utilised filters in the search bar to ANDNOT log sources.

    From memory it was something along the lines of

    show all logsources but !=WinCollect DSM

    The Host may have been @COLIN HAY in Munich last year.

    Does anyone have a suggestion on how to impliment filters within the search of ​Log Source Management App?

    Hi James,

    Yep that was me. We now have the advanced filtering documented for the app, see this link: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS42VS_7.3.1/com.ibm.lsmapp.doc/t_Qapps_LSM_using.html

    The gist of it is you start your query with advanced: so the interpreter knows you're doing a structured query rather than a free text search, and you follow that with your query which follows the API filtering syntax defined here: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SS42VS_7.3.3/com.ibm.qradar.doc/c_rest_api_filtering.html and uses the set of fields available in the log source API as documented here: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SS42VS_7.3.3/com.ibm.qradar.doc/11.0--config-event_sources-log_source_management-log_sources-GET.html

    For your specific case where you're trying to filter out any log sources of Log Source Type Wincollect DSM, you would want a search string like so:
    advanced: type_id != 246

    246 is the ID for the "WinCollect DSM" log source type.

    Hope this helps!

    Cheers
    Colin
