Which of the following methods is valid for creating index-time field extractions?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The valid method for creating index-time field extractions is to create a configuration app that includes the necessary props.conf and/or transforms.conf configurations. This app can then be uploaded via the UI. Index-time field extractions must be defined in these configuration files to ensure that fields are extracted correctly during indexing.

Hmm, I'm not sure about using the CU app to define fields.conf settings. Isn't that meant for more advanced configurations? Option B seems safer to me.

I've used the UI to create sourcetypes before, and it's a pretty straightforward process. Option A might be a good choice if you don't want to deal with configuration files.

Option B seems to be the most comprehensive approach, as it allows you to manage the index-time field extraction settings directly in the configuration files.

I think option A is valid because you can specify the field name and regular expression.
