Hi

I have two csv which got indexed

csv 1:

Step No,Release Name,Execution Time,Status
1,TA,02-16-2018 at 10:32:32 UTC,Pass
2.TA,02-16-2018 at 10:32:33 UTC,Fail

csv 2:
Step No,Release Name,Execution Time,Status
1,TA,02-16-2018 at 12:40:42 UTC,Pass
2.TA,02-16-2018 at 10:41:43 UTC,Pass

only Execution Time and Status will differ in both the file. indexing time(_time) will be "Execution Time"

my question is i want to get the data from csv2 only as it is only having latest timestamp using pivot .. i don't want to show the data from csv1 as it is having earliest timestamp .

Can somebody help me on this ?

Thanks in advance
