Search Reference

typelearner

The typelearner command is deprecated as of Splunk Enterprise version 5.0. This means that although the command continues to function, it might be removed in a future version.

Use the findtypes command instead.

Description

Generates suggested event types by taking previous search results and producing a list of potential searches that can be used as event types. By default, the typelearner command initially groups events by the value of the grouping-field. The search then unifies and merges these groups based on the keywords they contain.

Syntax

typelearner [<grouping-field>] [<grouping-maxlen>]

Optional arguments

grouping-field
Syntax: <field>
Description: The field with values for the typelearner comman to use when initially grouping events.
Default: punct, the punctuation seen in _raw
grouping-maxlen
Syntax: maxlen=<int>
Description: Determines how many characters in the grouping-field value to look at. If set to negative, the entire value of the grouping-field value is used to group events.
Default: 15

Examples

Example 1:

Have the search automatically discover and apply event types to search results.
