Hi all,
i have a json file like this.

{
 "JOB_NUM" : "1",
 "JOB_TIME" : "1/1/2020",
 "JOB_STATUS" : "PASS",
 "JOB_DURATION" : "304",
 "TESTCASES": 
  [
    { 
          "ID" : "a",
      "TIME" : "01.01.2020",
      "DURATION" : "126",
      "STATUS" : "PASS"
    },
    {
          "ID" : "b",
      "TIME" : "01.01.2020",
      "DURATION" : "62",
      "STATUS" : "FAIL"
        },
    {
          "ID" : "c",
      "TIME" : "01.01.2020",
      "DURATION" : "85",
      "STATUS" : "PASS" 
        },
        {
          "ID" : "d",
      "TIME" : "01.01.2020",
      "DURATION" : "135",
      "STATUS" : "PASS" 
        }
]
}

I want to group by "ID" by "STATUS" (both are inner fields). I have tried a lot. But still i am not able to get the proper answer. Can anyone please help me in this.

Thanks in advance.

You can have your required field by executing below search. Can you please try this ?

YOUR_SEARCH
| rename TESTCASES{}.* as * 
| eval tmp = mvzip(mvzip(mvzip(ID,STATUS),TIME),DURATION) 
| mvexpand tmp 
| eval ID=mvindex(split(tmp,","),0),STATUS=mvindex(split(tmp,","),1),TIME=mvindex(split(tmp,","),2),DURATION=mvindex(split(tmp,","),3)
| table JOB_NUM JOB_TIME JOB_STATUS JOB_DURATION ID TIME DURATION STATUS

Sample Search:

| makeresults 
| eval _raw="{\"JOB_NUM\" : \"1\",\"JOB_TIME\" : \"1/1/2020\",\"JOB_STATUS\" : \"PASS\",\"JOB_DURATION\" : \"304\",\"TESTCASES\":[{\"ID\" : \"a\",\"TIME\" : \"01.01.2020\",\"DURATION\" : \"126\",\"STATUS\" : \"PASS\"},{\"ID\" : \"b\",\"TIME\" : \"01.01.2020\",\"DURATION\" : \"62\",\"STATUS\" : \"FAIL\"},{\"ID\" : \"c\",\"TIME\" : \"01.01.2020\",\"DURATION\" : \"85\",\"STATUS\" : \"PASS\"},{\"ID\" : \"d\",\"TIME\" : \"01.01.2020\",\"DURATION\" : \"135\",\"STATUS\" : \"PASS\"}]}" 
| extract 
| rename TESTCASES{}.* as * 
| eval tmp = mvzip(mvzip(mvzip(ID,STATUS),TIME),DURATION) 
| mvexpand tmp 
| eval ID=mvindex(split(tmp,","),0),STATUS=mvindex(split(tmp,","),1),TIME=mvindex(split(tmp,","),2),DURATION=mvindex(split(tmp,","),3)
| table JOB_NUM JOB_TIME JOB_STATUS JOB_DURATION ID TIME DURATION STATUS

With the proper data-set you can do any aggregation using stats command.

Adding into above sample search:

 | stats count by ID

OR

| stats count by ID

OR

| stats <<ANY LOGIC AS PER YOUR REQUIREMENT>>

Please let us know for further assistance.

hi @to4kawa i got pie chart using @kamlesh_vaghela's solution. Now i want a drill down from that pie chart. The token $state$ is STATUS. On clicking the respective STATUS it should lead to a table containing all the ID's. I am trying for that, if you know how to do it can you please help me in this!!

Hi @to4kawa thank you so much for the response. It is working, but the output table is having only 3 rows. But the data has many testcases.

It is working , but some of the values are repeating in table. Why is that so?

JOB_NUM,JOB_TIME,JOB_STATUS,JOB_DURATION are dare to display multiple.
Do not you need them?

I need to group the IDs. Thanks a lot for responding. I got the answer using @kamlesh_vaghela's solution. I am trying to make a drill down from the pie chart .
The query is,
index=''abc" STATUS="$state$" | table TESTCASES{}.ID,TESTCASES{}.DURATION,TESTCASES{}.STATUS

But i am not getting proper answer. Do you know how to solve this?

Hi @kamlesh_vaghela thank you so much for your response. It worked!!
But when i execute |stats count(ID) by STATUS i get count more than the actual count of IDs. Is it event count?
If i give distinct_count the IDs which are repeated will not be added into the count.What will be the problem here?

@anooshac yes it is event count.

Try this for distinct ID count

|stats dc(ID) by STATUS

Hi @kamlesh_vaghela It is working! Once again thanks a lot!
I need one more help. I am trying to give one drill down from this result to display the IDs of respective status. I saved this result as pie chart. When i click on any status the drill down is displaying all the IDs instead of respective ID's of that status. My query is

index=''abc" STATUS="$state$" | table TESTCASES{}.ID,TESTCASES{}.DURATION,TESTCASES{}.STATUS

How can i correct this? can you please help me!!

Try this XML. You will get idea about drilldown.
