Splunk Search

Chart by selected fields

Hi
I am trying to structure some data from an outside source. In the data I get a lot of fields for each event, I want to work by selected field as below:
Field 1 Count Sparkline(Value)
Field 2 Count Sparkline(Value)
Field 3 Count Sparkline(Value)
Field 4 Count Sparkline(Value)
Field 5 Count Sparkline(Value)
Field 6 Count Sparkline(Value)

So far I haven’t been able to figure out how to pass the field as a variable in a search. Any help?

Try this (for starters)

sourcetype=fields | stats sparkline(avg(Field1)) as "Sparkline(value)", count(Field1) as Count | eval FieldName="Field1" | append [search sourcetype=fields | stats sparkline(avg(Field2)) as "Sparkline(value)", count(Field2) as Count | eval FieldName ="Field2"]  | append [search sourcetype=fields | stats sparkline(avg(Field3)) as "Sparkline(value)", count(Field3) as Count | eval FieldName ="Field3"] | append [search sourcetype=fields | stats sparkline(avg(Field4)) as "Sparkline(value)", count(Field4) as Count | eval FieldName ="Field4"]  | append [search sourcetype=fields | stats sparkline(avg(Field4)) as "Sparkline(value)", count(Field5) as Count | eval FieldName ="Field5"]  | append [search sourcetype=fields | stats sparkline(avg(Field6)) as "Sparkline(value)", count(Field6) as Count | eval FieldName ="Field6"] | table FieldName , "Sparkline(value)", Count

If your field names follow some patterns, you can filter based on that or may have fields names in a lookup file and filter with that.

Actually what I was looking for was to pull the fields. What worked for me was this:
...| fieldsummary|table field count min max

By the way. by fields I mean the ones inside the event. you can see them when you click in "All Fields" in the left panel.

I want to create a table with one Field per row. For me what’s important is to learn how to display those fields and the values. The fields are fixed; every event has the same fields.

Can you be more specific on the output you want? Its a table or chart? You want different rows for different field? How you are selecting fields, fixed list or dynamic?
