Splunk Search

Apache GET requests - include total count and sub counts on same chart

hharvey

I've got a line chart to display a count of GET requests for URLS/product name over time. Pretty straight forward search:

index=apache sourcetype=app_access "/products/" | timechart  span=1m count by productname 

I've also got a line chart of total GET requests over time:

index=apache sourcetype=app_access "/products/" | timechart span=1m count

Can I combine these two searches into one timechart (line chart, I'm not interested in a stacked column) so that lines for each product AND a line for the total are displayed at once. Feel like this should be easy, but I haven't stumbled on the answer yet!

there can be several approaches, the overlay view with advanced XML as a complex solution and something easier depending on how flexible you are on how you want the data displayed.

I would try first by appending | addtotals to your timechart by product

Check out the command options in the documentation to make it work the way you want 😉
