Hi Splunkers

I need some assistance with a search. I need to add the values of a Field and then use them in a stats command.

The field name is "MyField" and the values and Count are:
Requests 389
Advices 233

I need to add Requests and Advices together and then use them in a stats command as Field "MyFieldTotals"

Thanks in advance

HI,

You are looking for something like this:

<Your Search> |eval MyFieldTotals=Requests+Advices | <Your Search>

HI,

<Your Search> |eval MyFieldTotals=Requests+Advices | <Your Search>

That will rename the Field name, not the Value's name.
