How to get the values for the selected fields

Hi Guys,

I have this query with me.

index=qvmr_soc_r job_type=batch |stats dc() as * | fields *vip snps | transpose

Basically i'm checking the field names that matches with these vip and snps names.

But this query is only returning the distinct count not the values of the fields.

How to get these values for the specified fields. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Maniteja

What you are looking for is | stats values(vip) as VIPs values(snps) as SNPS rather than dc().

This will give you the full list of distinct values in those fields as an multivalue field. Read here for more info.

Hope this helps

You have to use fields before stats. something like

index=qvmr_soc_r job_type=batch |fields vip snps | stats dc(vip) as vip_dc_count dc(snps) as snps_dc_count |  transpose
