Hi all. I'm facing some issues in displaying annotations for my graphs. I suspect that something is wrong when I use 2 STREAMSTATS command. My annotation for that particular graph seems to stop working.

When I run this code, it works!

index="alarm"
| streamstats avg(alarmcount) as average stdev(alarmcount) as standev

| eval threeSigmaLimit = (average + (standev * 3))
| where alarmcount > threeSigmaLimit | eval annotation_label = index | eval annotation_color = "0xff9900"
| table _time annotation_label alarmcount

$field1.earliest$
$field1.latest$

However, when I run this code. The annotation disappears.

index="alarm"
| streamstats window=2 min(alarmcount3) as minimum
| eval is_increase=if(alarmcount3!=minimum,1,0)
| streamstats window=7 sum(is_increase) as increases
| where increases>=7
| eval increase_index = index2 - 6
| eval annotation_label = increase_index| eval annotation_color = "0xff9900"
| table _time annotation_label alarmcount3

$field1.earliest$
$field1.latest$

any idea whY??

Hi,
When you run the 2nd search do you get any output or only annotation disappears?

Hi, I get the output but not the annotation. I'm suspecting the 'double' streamstats command is affecting it.

Hi,
Don't run your search completely but try running it part by part so that you can find which part of your search is going wrong.

Yup! I did. I realised that if I remove the '2nd' streamstats command, everything works. Hmmm... I really think that it isn't the code that has a problem here..
