How to create a table showing the count of values across Lists/Arrays in multiple queries?

If I have queries with Lists/Arrays containing events :

line.Data = [eventOne, eventThree];  line.Data = [eventOne, eventTwo]; 

How can I create a table that shows the count of the different events:

eventOne: 2

eventTwo: 1

eventThree: 1

Here is a runanywhere example of how you might approach this

| makeresults
| fields - _time
| eval line.Data = split("[eventOne, eventThree];[eventOne, eventTwo]",";")
| mvexpand line.Data
``` the lines above create sample events, one event per line.Data ```
| eval event=split(trim('line.Data',"[]"),", ")
| stats count by event

Try this.

 

<your base search>
| mvexpand line.Data
| stats count by line.Data

 

  1. Replace <your base search> with the search that produces the line.Data field containing the lists/arrays.
  2. Use the mvexpand command to expand the line.Data field into separate rows, one for each event in the list.
  3. Use the stats command with the count function to count the number of occurrences of each event.
