I have following fileds, I want to calculate the total f count: (count(f1)+count(f2)+count(f3)+count(f4))=3+3+2+1=9. How can I get the total result 9?

  1. fl=1, f2=3, f3=5
  2. f1=2, f2=2
  3. f1=2, f2=3, f3=3, f4=1

Hi @Min1025,

If you have only these fields as output, you could try

your search|fields "f1,f2,e.t.c." |stats count(*) as *|addtotals
