Splunk Search

How can I count values by a subgroup?

yk010123
Path Finder

I have the following data : 

 

ServiceMessage
Service1Hello world
Service2Another message
Service1Hello world
Service1Some other message

 

How can I write a query such that the final output looks like : 

Service : Unique message : count

For example : 

Service1 : Hello World :   2

Service1:Some other message : 1

Service2: Some other message

Add custom field in @VatsalJagani search to get values in desired format.

YOUR_SEARCH
| stats count by Service Message
| eval custom_field=Service.":".Message.":".count

 My Sample Search :

 

| makeresults | eval _raw="Service	Message
Service1	Hello world
Service2	Another message
Service1	Hello world
Service1	Some other message" | multikv forceheader=1
| table Service	Message
| rename comment as "Upto now is for sample data only"
| stats count by Service Message
| eval custom_field=Service.":".Message.":".count

 

Thanks
