How to Transpose Correct Query

OLD Query:

source="http:Emerson_P1CDN" AND status_code=200 AND path=*/catalog* AND path!=*thumb* AND path!=*CartRefreshStatusJSON* AND path!=*PriceAjaxView* | bucket span=1m _time | stats count by client_isp,_time | where count >= 600 | convert timeformat="%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S" ctime(_time) | sort - count | transpose header_field=_time



When I set this one as an alert, it considers the client_isp and _time as part of the query so even there where no result it is sending a blank alert only the client_isp and time on the first column.

New Query:

source="http:Emerson_P1CDN" AND status_code=200 AND path=*/catalog* AND path!=*thumb* AND path!=*CartRefreshStatusJSON* AND path!=*PriceAjaxView* | bucket span=1m _time | stats count by client_isp,_time | transpose header_field=_time | sort - count | where count >= 600 | convert timeformat="%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S" ctime(_time)



While on this one, there were no result at all.

What maybe wrong on this query?

The transpose command has an option to deal with this situation.

You could try something like this

source="http:Emerson_P1CDN" AND status_code=200 AND path=*/catalog* AND path!=*thumb* AND path!=*CartRefreshStatusJSON* AND path!=*PriceAjaxView* 
| bucket span=1m _time 
| stats count by client_isp,_time 
| where count >= 600 
| convert timeformat="%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S" ctime(_time) 
| sort - count 
| transpose header_field=_time include_empty=f
