Returns dimension values transformed using the given DimExtractionFn

{
  "type" : "extraction",
  "dimension" : <dimension>,
  "outputName" :  <output_name>,
  "dimExtractionFn" : <dim_extraction_fn>
}

DimExtractionFn

DimExtractionFns define the transformation applied to each dimension value

RegexDimExtractionFn

Returns the first group matched by the given regular expression. If there is no match it returns the dimension value as is.

{ "type" : "regex", "expr", <regular_expression> }

PartialDimExtractionFn

Returns the dimension value as is if there is a match, otherwise returns null.

SearchQuerySpecDimExtractionFn

{ "type" : "searchQuery", "query" : <search_query_spec> }

TimeDimExtractionFn

Parses dimension values as timestamps using the given input format, and returns them formatted using the given output format. Time formats follow the com.ibm.icu.text.SimpleDateFormat format
