Can you use predict with split by function?

Is there a way to split by using predict.

I can predict on a single factor, e.g.

| timechart span=1h max(values) as values | predict values

How about:

| timechart span=1h max(values) as values by user?

What is your exact use case here? What are you trying to predict?

It's possible your climbing the wrong ladder here

I have the same problem/requirement.
What I want to do is to have predictions for counts of events in the timechart that is split by country, using trellis chart. Is there a way? The normal BY clause doesn't output anything when adding PREDICT

Here it is: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/661506/predict-with-wildcard.html#answer-661742

This was a slightly different scenario, but it may be helpful.

Thanks but the example did not support an actual by-clause

index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd*
| stats count by sourcetype
| map search="search index=_internal sourcetype=$sourcetype$ | timechart count as $sourcetype$ | predict $sourcetype$"
| stats values(*) as * by _time

I need predict to support "timechart count as $sourcetype$ by host" for example.
