Splunk Search

How do I edit my search to find what version of a product users are on?

Path Finder

My logs have the following info:

userid, version, timestamp

What is the best way to get a report of what product version users are on? I tried:

sourcetype="Apache2" | table timestamp userid version

but it's not exactly what I need. How can you restrict userid to last encountered version, and also search unique userids.

Try this. It will find the most recent event for each userid, which should be the last encountered version.

sourcetype="Apache2" | dedup userid | table timestamp userid version
