Hello

I use the code below.

I'm doing an outputlookup at the end of the query, but I want to do it with a condition.

The condition is that Build=1511.

Do i have to use a where command or there is another solution please??

eventtype="AppliEV" Level=* 
| dedup host 
| stats count by host 
| append 
    [ search index="ai-wkst-windows-fr" sourcetype=WinRegistry key_path="\\registry\\machine\\xx" 
        OR 
        key_path="\\registry\\machine\\xx" 
    | eval OS=if(key_path=="\\registry\\machine\\software\\xx), 
        Build=if(key_path=="\\registry\\machine\\software\\xx) 
    | stats latest(OS) as OS latest(Build) as Build by host ] 
| stats values(OS) as OS values(Build) as Build by host 
| stats count as Total by OS Build host | fields - host | outputlookup build.csv

Hi!

You can use a where command in this way:


...
| stats count as Total by OS Build host
| fields - host
| appendpipe
[where Build="1511"
| outputlookup override_if_empty=f build.csv
| where nofield="novalue"]

It helps to avoid overriding build.csv with empty file in case of Build is not 1511.
