Web
The fields in the Web data model describe web server and/or proxy server data in a security or operational context.
Note: A dataset is a component of a data model. In versions of the Splunk platform prior to version 6.5.0, these were referred to as data model objects.
Tags used with the Web event datasets
The following tags act as constraints to identify your events as being relevant to this data model. For more information, see How to use these reference tables.
Dataset name | Tag name |

Fields for Web event datasets
The following table lists the extracted and calculated fields for the event datasets in the model. Note that it does not include any inherited fields. For more information, see How to use these reference tables.
The key for using the column titled "Abbreviated list of example values" follows:
- Recommended are fields derived from the "recommended=true" JSON parameter that the TA developers need to make best efforts to map
- Prescribed fields are the permitted values that can populate the fields, which are derived from the "expected_values" JSON parameter
- Other values are other example values that you might see
