hello there,

maybe use the chart overlay function within your visualization options.
run this search anywhere and follow the screenshot below:

| gentimes start="07/16/2018:00:00:00" end="07/20/2018:10:00:00" increment=15m
| eval total_time= random()%1000
| eval _time = starttime
| timechart span=2h  sum(total_time) as sum_total_time avg(total_time) as avg_total_time

hope it helps

Hi @Adonio,

Apologies. I am unable to follow the code that was provided.

Let me explain the thing here again.
If there is a Service A . It takes time to run. Need to calculate average and total time elapsed for the service. Thanks,
