I am searching for specific text in my logs
text is $2a$10$Ltijvm9V
in KQL search I wrote
`message.keyword : "$2a$10$Ltijvm9V2eA"`
it returns nothing and says expand your time rang but before search I can see the text.
Second problem: lets say a have a field named as message and I want to search a specific word in it so I wrote
`message.keyword : "UserCorrelationFilter"`
again it returns nothing
but I know that the text is there and that message is exists what is wrong with my searchs

Thanks. A couple questions:
- It looks like you have a filter `75` - could that be filtering out some of the data you are hoping to see?
- With your `UserCorrelationFilter` example you should seeing results with `message: UserCorrelationFilter`. `message.keyword` is doing a search on a keyword type, not text.

I successfully search and get results.
My mistake was there was $ sign in my search it directly fails and other characters like |(pipe) also may broke your search.
my other mistake was misuseage of " and \* signs
let say we have a message like "asd dfetretgdg sfe safefa"
and you want to search for messages that contains sfe word then you should write like `message: "sfe"`. if you want to search for a message that contains specific text then you should write like `message:*dfe*`
so how can I search a specific text that contains $ sign or | or \ or/ ?
