Column 1Column 2
A1A2
B1B2
C1C2
D1D2

 

And I would like to transform it to something like this

1st  row1st row2nd row 2nd row3 rd row 3rd row4th row4th row
A1A2B1B2 C1 C2 D1 D2

 

 

 

| makeresults
| eval _raw="Column1,Column2
A1,A2
B1,B2
C1,C2
D1,D2"
| multikv forceheader=1
| table Column1,Column2

|.......

You can't have duplicate column names. To get the results in one row, try

| makeresults
| eval _raw="Column1,Column2
A1,A2
B1,B2
C1,C2
D1,D2"
| multikv forceheader=1
| table Column1,Column2
| streamstats count as row
| foreach * 
    [ eval columnvalues=if("<<FIELD>>"="row",columnvalues,if(isnull(columnvalues),<<FIELD>>,mvappend(columnvalues,<<FIELD>>)))]
| fields columnvalues
| mvexpand columnvalues
| transpose 0
| where column="columnvalues"
