Adding another column to table

Hello,

 

I am trying to add another index column to this table. Currently using the search below.

| tstats count where index IN (network) by _time span=1h
| rename count as Network_Logs
| eval _time=strftime(_time, "%m-%d %H:%M")

| tstats count where index IN (network, proxy) by _time span=1h
| rename count as Network_Logs
| eval _time=strftime(_time, "%m-%d %H:%M")

 

Adding another index such as proxy doesn't seem to work just adds to the total count. Is there anyway to count separate indexes by 1 hour intervals?

You have to split by index as well. Try this

| tstats count where index IN (network, proxy) by _time span=1h index
| timechart span=1h max(count) by index

The tstats will give you an index column as well as count, then the timechart will convert that to a timechart. Note that you need to use max(count) here.

Note you can also do this simply with tstats using prestats and chart, i.e.

| tstats prestats=t count where index IN (network, proxy) by _time span=1h index
| chart count by _time index

This way you just use chart count and you don't need the max.

You can also use the tstats with prestats with count.

| tstats prestats=t count where index IN (network,proxy) by index _time span=1h
| timechart span=1h count by index
