The following search finds matching messages:
message:“h_status=200”
But the following search finds no matching messages
message:“h_status=2??”
I’ve read the documentation but cannot find that numbers are treated differently from ordinary text.
So how do I search for part of a number in message text? In my search every three digit number that starts with the digit 2.
the important is that the numbers need to be save in Elasticsearch as numbers to be handled different. When the number is saved as string it can only be handled like a string.
I realized that the way to do this is to add extractors to the input identifying the separate strings and make fields of them that are available in the search.
