Separate index for every aggs bucket

Hi, I want to create a separate index for every aggs buckets. here is my watcher.
I know I have to use "foreach" for my problem but can't figure out what value should I give it.
thanks.

Your tranform will produce this payload, so when you refer ctx.payload.aggregations.groupbyhost.keys it will produce following exception specified foreach object was null: [ctx.payload.aggregations.device_name.keys]
there no aggregations.device_name.keys under payload ....
Please review your tranform script.

What is your target ? is to get for each device :

  • Number of documents

  • Array of users_name

  • Array of source_ip
    Or something specific ?

      {
        "payload": {
          "hits": [
            {
              "number": 17
            },
            {
              "number": 1
            }
          ],
          "@timestamp": "2020-09-06T09:20:14.3169139Z",
          "attacker IPs": [
            "10.10.1.10",
            "10.10.2.10"
          ],
          "host": [
            {
              "name": "Cisco Firewall"
            },
            {
              "name": "FortiGate Firewall"
            }
          ],
          "usernames": [
            "bornatalebi 1",
            "bornatalebi 1"
          ]
        }
      }

Thanks for your reply,
Yes I want to create an index for each device containing the Number of documents, Array of users_name and Array of source_ip.
What should i replace ctx.payload.aggregations.groupbyhost.buckets.keys with? If i use something like ctx.payload.host it will only add host.name to index.

I would suggest you try composite aggregation to get a simplified output index
I'm not sure if that will help you, otherwise you need to review your tranform to produce the correct array you need

Thanks. I think I have to edit my transform script.
