Folks !!

I'm struggling with removing empty rows from the result fields in my results. In my results, i've got many empty rows.

Kindly assist this case.

Unable to upload/attach my sheet, sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers,

Hi leninkp3005,

You can use field!=null for this one.
If you want to use those null fields you can use fillnull command
fillnull fills all the null values in the results of a specific field/fields/all fields with a value (defaulted as 0)
|fillnull FIELD value="N/A"

@leninkp3005

you can use where or search after your result.

|where isnotnull(field1)

OR

|search field1=*
