Dashboard Studio count input

jwhughes58 — Thu, 05 Sep 2024 20:10:38 GMT

I'm working with Dashboard Studio for the first time and I've got another question.

In the input on the Dashboard, I set this $servers_entered$. I thought I had a solution for counting how many items are in $servers_entered$, but I found a case that failed. This is what $servers_entered$ looks like.

host_1, host_2, host_3, host_4, ..., host_n

What I need is a way of counting how many entries are in $servers_entered$. So far the commands I've tried have failed. What would work?

TIA,

Joe

Have you tried

mvcount($servers_entered$)

@ITWhispererThanks, but those didn't work. I tried both of these.

| makeresults | fields - _time | eval count=mvcount($servers_entered$)

mvcount($servers_entered$)

The first errors. The second returns 0.

This works.
