Duplicated values on count

When I do an stats count my field it return the double of the real number

index=raw_fe5_autsust Aplicacao=HUB Endpoint="*/"
| eval Agrupamento=if(Agrupamento!="", Agrupamento, "AGRUPAMENTO_HOLDING/CE")
| eval Timestamp=strftime(_time, "%Y-%m-%d")
| stats count by Agrupamento, Timestamp
| sort -Timestamp


I already tried dedup and when I count only by Timestamp it works fine

If Agrupamento is a multi-value field, it will be counted for each value in the multivalue field

| makeresults
| eval field=split("AA","")
| stats count by field _time

Hi @vinihei_987 ,

are yousure that in some events you have only one Agrupamento?

probaby they are more than one in some (or all) events, so you have a total greter than events.

Ciao.

It's not clear what the problem is.  Are you seeing repeated results or are the counts twice the expected values?  It may help to share sanitized output.
