Using the below Data, I was attempting to extract the folder and the file from this example log entry.&nbsp; Here is what I started with and got no further.&nbsp; Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

TIMESTAMP(“yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS”):current\_time SPACE  
DIGIT:transfer\_time SPACE  
IPV4:remote\_host SPACE  
DIGIT:file\_size SPACE  
[^(.\*/)\[^/\]]\*:folder

Data  
2024-09-25 13:04:02,536 0 10.22.10.10 36 /folder/partners/gump/Texax02/incoming/PFPT/pcmm/Errors/SMS\_production-cg2/mmm01\_utl\_issues\_conrepor.csv b s i r dispcgmftp ssh 0 \*

Hey Dwayne,

I wasn’t able to figure it out with DPL, but if in the situation it is possible to also use DQL after the fact then you could do something like the following:

Hope this helps
