How to edit my search to pair values using "stats values()"?

Hello,

I'm trying to pair values using stats values(), and I'm having some trouble.

I'm searching for blocked users in Websense, counting the number of times they are blocked, and I want to get their source IP and which destination host(s) was visited from each IP.

Currently my search is as follows:

index = websense | search action = blocked | stats count(username) as Count, values(src_host) as SourceIP stats values(dst_host) as DestinationHost by SourceIP  | sort -Count | head </code>

I'm currently getting data that shows

jsmith |5     |IP1     |website1
       |      |IP2     |website2
       |      |        |website3

I'd like to show, for example, that the user visited website1 from IP1 and IP2, website2 from IP1, and website 3 from IP2, like this, or similar

jsmith |5     |IP1     |website1
       |      |IP2     |website1
       |      |IP1     |website2
       |      |IP2     |website3

Try like this (double check the field names used)

 index = websense  action = blocked |eval temp=src_host."##".dst_host | stats count(username) as Count, values(temp) as temp by username  | sort -Count | head | rex field=temp "(?<SourceIP>.+)##(?<DestinationHost>.+)" | table username Count SourceIP DestinationHost

Thanks! I had to change "values(temp)temp" to "values(temp) as temp," but otherwise it worked perfectly.

I updated the answer as well to correct that.
