Fillnull on an eval field post stats

Hi,

I want to do a fillnull on an eval created field post stats but it never works quite right with either creating the null field in the eval field or just not working at all. What I want is when it performs a stats on all the eval fields, if there are no results in one to just return a 0.

Here is the base search:

| datamodel Test summariesonly=true search
| search "TEST.date"=2021-05-18| rename "TEST.date" as date
| rename "TEST.uri_path" as uri_path
| eval category=case(like(uri_path, "/url1"), "highPriority", uri_path="/url2", "unattended",
uri_path="/url3", "lowPriority", uri_path="/url4", "largePayload")
| rename "TEST.response_time" as response_time
| stats avg(response_time) by category
| rename avg(response_time) as averageResponse
| eval averageResponse=round(averageResponse,3)
| transpose 0 header_field=category

If for example there were no url3 i.e. unattended, I would want a 0 under the unattended column

Results if I put fillnull before stats avg():

Worked it out, after transpose add these lines:

| fillnull value=0 highPriority, lowPriority, largePayload, unattended
| fields highPriority, lowPriority, largePayload, unattended, date
