Path Finder

I have a base query which yield the field result, result can be either "Pass" or "Fail"

Sample query result is attached

How can I create a column chart with the count of passes and fails as different color columns?

 

here is my current search which yields a column chart with two columns of the same color

index="sampleindex" source="samplesource" | 
search test_name="IR Test" |
search serial_number="TC-7"|
spath result |
stats count by result

Splunk uses different colors for different numeric fields.  Your stats command results in only one, count.  There are many ways to make a field named Pass and another named Fail.  As your output only contains a 2x2, the easiest is probably just transpose the output.

index="sampleindex" source="samplesource" test_name="IR Test" serial_number="TC-7"
| stats count by result
| transpose header_field=result

Additional tips:

  • Do not use screenshot to share text data.  Share raw text.
  • Do not cascade filters that can be performed in initial index search.
  • Format Splunk searches with pipe sign at beginning of line, not end.  You can enable "Search auto-format" in preferences to help you create readable searches.
