Help with splitting multiline event needed

Hello,

I read my data with the inputlookup command and try to count the different occurrences of the field fields.SID as below:

 

 

 

 

| makeresults
| eval time=relative_time(now(),"-24h")
| eval time=ceil(time)
| table time
| map [ |inputlookup incidents where alert_time > $time$ ]

| join incident_id 
  [ |inputlookup incident_results ]
| fields fields.SID
| search fields.SID=*
| mvexpand fields.SID

 

 

 

 

 

Unfortunately, whatever tricks I do I am always getting several SIDs packed into a single event, see the screenshot below. 

How would I split it the way to have each fields.SID in separate row to be able to count it?

Kind Regards,

Kamil
