# Commands
Start a PPL query with a `search` command to reference a table to search from. You can have the commands that follow in any order.
In the following example, the `search` command refers to an `accounts` index as the source, then uses `fields` and `where` commands for the conditions:
```sql
search source=accounts
| where age > 18
| fields firstname, lastname
```
In the below examples, we represent required arguments in angle brackets `< >` and optional arguments in square brackets `[ ]`.
{: .note }
## search
Use the `search` command to retrieve a document from an index. You can only use the `search` command as the first command in the PPL query.
### Syntax
```sql
search source=<index> [boolean-expression]
```
Field | Description | Required
:--- | :--- |:---
`search` | Specify search keywords. | Yes
`index` | Specify which index to query from. | No
`bool-expression` | Specify an expression that evaluates to a boolean value. | No
*Example 1*: Get all documents
To get all documents from the `accounts` index:
```sql
search source=accounts;
```
| account_number | firstname | address | balance | gender | city | employer | state | age | email | lastname |

*Example 2*: Get documents that match a condition
To get all documents from the `accounts` index that have either `account_number` equal to 1 or have `gender` as `F`:
```sql
search source=accounts account_number=1 or gender=\"F\";
```
| account_number | firstname | address | balance | gender | city | employer | state | age | email | lastname |

## dedup
The `dedup` (data deduplication) command removes duplicate documents defined by a field from the search result.
### Syntax
```sql
dedup [int] <field-list> [keepempty=<bool>] [consecutive=<bool>]
```
Field | Description | Type | Required | Default
:--- | :--- |:--- |:--- |:---
`int` | Retain the specified number of duplicate events for each combination. The number must be greater than 0. If you do not specify a number, only the first occurring event is kept and all other duplicates are removed from the results. | `string` | No | 1
`keepempty` | If true, keep the document if any field in the field list has a null value or a field missing. | `nested list of objects` | No | False
`consecutive` | If true, remove only consecutive events with duplicate combinations of values. | `Boolean` | No | False
`field-list` | Specify a comma-delimited field list. At least one field is required. | `String` or comma-separated list of strings | Yes | -
*Example 1*: Dedup by one field
To remove duplicate documents with the same gender:
```sql
search source=accounts | dedup gender | fields account_number, gender;
```
| account_number | gender
:--- | :--- |
1 | M
13 | F
*Example 2*: Keep two duplicate documents

```sql
search source=accounts | dedup 2 gender | fields account_number, gender;
```
| account_number | gender
:--- | :--- |
1 | M
6 | M
13 | F
*Example 3*: Keep or ignore an empty field by default
To keep two duplicate documents with a `null` field value:
```sql
search source=accounts | dedup email keepempty=true | fields account_number, email;
```
| account_number | email
:--- | :--- |
1 | amberduke@pyrami.com
6 | hattiebond@netagy.com
13 | null
18 | daleadams@boink.com
To remove duplicate documents with the `null` field value:

```
| account_number | email
:--- | :--- |
1 | amberduke@pyrami.com
6 | hattiebond@netagy.com
18 | daleadams@boink.com
*Example 4*: Dedup of consecutive documents
To remove duplicates of consecutive documents:
```sql
search source=accounts | dedup gender consecutive=true | fields account_number, gender;
```
| account_number | gender
:--- | :--- |
1 | M
13 | F
18 | M
### Limitations
The `dedup` command is not rewritten to OpenSearch DSL, it is only executed on the coordination node.
## eval
The `eval` command evaluates an expression and appends its result to the search result.
### Syntax
```sql
eval <field>=<expression> ["," <field>=<expression> ]...
```
Field | Description | Required
:--- | :--- |:---
`field` | If a field name does not exist, a new field is added. If the field name already exists, it's overwritten. | Yes
`expression` | Specify any supported expression. | Yes
*Example 1*: Create a new field
To create a new `doubleAge` field for each document. `doubleAge` is the result of `age` multiplied by 2:
```sql
search source=accounts | eval doubleAge = age * 2 | fields age, doubleAge;
```
| age | doubleAge
:--- | :--- |
32 | 64
36 | 72
28 | 56
33 | 66
*Example 2*: Overwrite the existing field
To overwrite the `age` field with `age` plus 1:
```sql
search source=accounts | eval age = age + 1 | fields age;
```
| age
:--- |
| 33
| 37
| 29
| 34
*Example 3*: Create a new field with a field defined with the `eval` command
To create a new field `ddAge`. `ddAge` is the result of `doubleAge` multiplied by 2, where `doubleAge` is defined in the `eval` command:
```sql
search source=accounts | eval doubleAge = age * 2, ddAge = doubleAge * 2 | fields age, doubleAge, ddAge;
```
| age | doubleAge | ddAge
:--- | :--- |
| 32 | 64 | 128
| 36 | 72 | 144
| 28 | 56 | 112
| 33 | 66 | 132
### Limitation
The ``eval`` command is not rewritten to OpenSearch DSL, it is only executed on the coordination node.
## fields
Use the `fields` command to keep or remove fields from a search result.
### Syntax
```sql
fields [+|-] <field-list>
```
Field | Description | Required | Default
:--- | :--- |:---|:---
`index` | Plus (+) keeps only fields specified in the field list. Minus (-) removes all fields specified in the field list. | No | +
`field list` | Specify a comma-delimited list of fields. | Yes | No default
*Example 1*: Select specified fields from result
To get `account_number`, `firstname`, and `lastname` fields from a search result:
```sql
search source=accounts | fields account_number, firstname, lastname;
```
| account_number | firstname | lastname
:--- | :--- |

## parse
Use the `parse` command to parse a text field using regular expression and append the result to the search result.
### Syntax
```sql
parse <field> <regular-expression>
```
Field | Description | Required
:--- | :--- |:---
field | A text field. | Yes
regular-expression | The regular expression used to extract new fields from the given test field. If a new field name exists, it will replace the original field. | Yes
The regular expression is used to match the whole text field of each document with Java regex engine. Each named capture group in the expression will become a new ``STRING`` field.
*Example 1*: Create new field
The example shows how to create new field `host` for each document. `host` will be the hostname after `@` in `email` field. Parsing a null field will return an empty string.
```sql
os> source=accounts | parse email '.+@(?<host>.+)' | fields email, host ;
fetched rows / total rows = 4/4
```
| email | host
:--- | :--- |
| amberduke@pyrami.com | pyrami.com
| hattiebond@netagy.com | netagy.com
| null | null
| daleadams@boink.com | boink.com
*Example 2*: Override the existing field
The example shows how to override the existing address field with street number removed.
```sql
os> source=accounts | parse address '\d+ (?<address>.+)' | fields address ;
fetched rows / total rows = 4/4
```
| address
:--- |
| Holmes Lane
| Bristol Street
| Madison Street
| Hutchinson Court
*Example 3*: Filter and sort be casted parsed field
The example shows how to sort street numbers that are higher than 500 in address field.
```sql
os> source=accounts | parse address '(?<streetNumber>\d+) (?<street>.+)' | where cast(streetNumber as int) > 500 | sort num(streetNumber) | fields streetNumber, street ;
fetched rows / total rows = 3/3
```
| streetNumber | street
:--- | :--- |
| 671 | Bristol Street
| 789 | Madison Street
| 880 | Holmes Lane
### Limitations
A few limitations exist when using the parse command:
- Fields defined by parse cannot be parsed again. For example, `source=accounts | parse address '\d+ (?<street>.+)' | parse street '\w+ (?<road>\w+)' ;` will fail to return any expressions.
- Fields defined by parse cannot be overridden with other commands. For example, when entering `source=accounts | parse address '\d+ (?<street>.+)' | eval street='1' | where street='1' ;` `where` will not match any documents since `street` cannot be overridden.
- The text field used by parse cannot be overridden. For example, when entering `source=accounts | parse address '\d+ (?<street>.+)' | eval address='1' ;` `street` will not be parse since address is overridden.
- Fields defined by parse cannot be filtered/sorted after using them in the `stats` command. For example, `source=accounts | parse email '.+@(?<host>.+)' | stats avg(age) by host | where host=pyrami.com ;` `where` will not parse the domain listed.
## rename
Use the `rename` command to rename one or more fields in the search result.
### Syntax
```sql
rename <source-field> AS <target-field>["," <source-field> AS <target-field>]...
```
Field | Description | Required
:--- | :--- |:---
`source-field` | The name of the field that you want to rename. | Yes
`target-field` | The name you want to rename to. | Yes
*Example 1*: Rename one field

```sql
search source=accounts | rename account_number as an | fields an;
```
| an
:--- |
| 1
| 6
| 13
| 18
*Example 2*: Rename multiple fields
Rename the `account_number` field as `an` and `employer` as `emp`:
```sql
search source=accounts | rename account_number as an, employer as emp | fields an, emp;
```
| an | emp
:--- | :--- |

```
## ad
The `ad` command applies the Random Cut Forest (RCF) algorithm in the ML Commons plugin on the search result returned by a PPL command. Based on the input, the plugin uses two types of RCF algorithms: fixed in time RCF for processing time-series data and batch RCF for processing non-time-series data.
### Fixed In Time RCF For Time-series Data Command Syntax
```sql
ad <shingle_size> <time_decay> <time_field>
```
Field | Description | Required
:--- | :--- |:---
`shingle_size` | A consecutive sequence of the most recent records. The default value is 8. | No
`time_decay` | Specifies how much of the recent past to consider when computing an anomaly score. The default value is 0.001. | No
`time_field` | Specifies the time filed for RCF to use as time-series data. Must be either a long value, such as the timestamp in miliseconds, or a string value in "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss".| Yes
### Batch RCF for Non-time-series Data Command Syntax
```sql
ad <shingle_size> <time_decay>
```
Field | Description | Required
:--- | :--- |:---
`shingle_size` | A consecutive sequence of the most recent records. The default value is 8. | No
`time_decay` | Specifies how much of the recent past to consider when computing an anomaly score. The default value is 0.001. | No
*Example 1*: Detecting events in New York City from taxi ridership data with time-series data
The example trains a RCF model and use the model to detect anomalies in the time-series ridership data.
PPL query:
```sql
os> source=nyc_taxi | fields value, timestamp | AD time_field='timestamp' | where value=10844.0
```
value | timestamp | score | anomaly_grade
:--- | :--- |:--- | :---
10844.0 | 1404172800000 | 0.0 | 0.0
*Example 2*: Detecting events in New York City from taxi ridership data with non-time-series data
PPL query:
```sql
os> source=nyc_taxi | fields value | AD | where value=10844.0
```
value | score | anomalous
:--- | :--- |:---
| 10844.0 | 0.0 | false
## kmeans
The kmeans command applies the ML Commons plugin's kmeans algorithm to the provided PPL command's search results.
## Syntax
```sql
kmeans <cluster-number>
```
For `cluster-number`, enter the number of clusters you want to group your data points into.
*Example*
The example shows how to classify three Iris species (Iris setosa, Iris virginica and Iris versicolor) based on the combination of four features measured from each sample: the length and the width of the sepals and petals.
PPL query:
```sql
os> source=iris_data | fields sepal_length_in_cm, sepal_width_in_cm, petal_length_in_cm, petal_width_in_cm | kmeans 3
```
sepal_length_in_cm | sepal_width_in_cm | petal_length_in_cm | petal_width_in_cm | ClusterID
:--- | :--- |:--- | :--- | :---
| 5.1 | 3.5 | 1.4 | 0.2 | 1
| 5.6 | 3.0 | 4.1 | 1.3 | 0
| 6.7 | 2.5 | 5.8 | 1.8 | 2
