Hello, I'm new to splunk. I would like to know how to join several sources and have the results stats displayed from both sources. In the example below I want to see the top 30 orders by url link. The orders is in one source(x) and the url link is another(y) both sources share a common url id.

  1. index = main (sourcetype= skeletor_rails OR sourcetype = deal_catalog_rails) commonField= deal_uuid
  2. | eventstats dc(order_id) as "totalCount" | stats count, sum(totalCount) as total_orders by permalink

Hi Valisha2005,

based on the generic example you provided, you can use something like this:

source=x OR source=y
| stats count values(*) AS * by url_id
| sort - count 
| head limit=30
