Hello Team,

Everyone has probably seen this error. 

Error in 'TsidxStats': _time aggregations are not yet supported except for count/min/max/range/earliest/latest

I try to understand stats command use which fields.  I don't want to try every field. Can I see this fields list on GUI or CLI?

That error message is specific to the _time field.  It's listing the only aggregation functions that can be used in tstats with that field; others, like sum, avg, etc., will produce this message.

To see which fields can be used by the tstats command, use walklex.

| walklex type=field index=foo
