Hi everyone,

I am currently trying to create a table that shows the count of activity by user as well as the occurrence in which sourcetype: 

What I am trying to achieve

UsersSourcetypeCount
User 1source 120
User 2source 230


Here is my base search at the moment:

index=index* "user"="user1*" OR "user"="user2*" | stats count by user | eval input_type="Count"| xyseries input_type count

Right now, it does show me the count of the user activity but I'm not sure how to add the sourcetype to the search to create a table view.

Just add "sourcetype" to the stats command.

index=index* "user"="user1*" OR "user"="user2*" 
| stats count by user, sourcetype
