Splunk Search

How can I show count as zero if no downloads have been made, but still show other source data?

I'm running a search that combines two data sources: one source captures our download logs and one source holds metadata about the document being downloaded. I'm using a join command to connect the two data sources. If a document has not been downloaded, I still want it to show in the results, but currently it is being filtered out entirely by my search. What needs to change in my search in order for the document to show (with "0" downloads)?

response_code=200 | filterbots| join DocumentFoo [inputlookup docs] |search DocumentFoo="name of document" | stats count fields I want to show, dc(src_ip) as distinctip by IPLocation | table fields I want to show |

Try like this

response_code=200 
| filterbots
| stats count fields I want to show, dc(src_ip) as distinctip by IPLocation 
| append [| inputlookup docs | eval count=0 ] 
| sort IPLocation DocumentFoo - count
| dedup IPLocation DocumentFoo 
| search DocumentFoo="name of document" 
| table fields I want to show
