How to replace blank values with "0"?

Trying to replace the blank values on my dashboard with 0s. If table is empty, should display 0. On the logs data, it is simply blank.

Since you said you tried fillnull, I'm guessing they're being read in as empty strings. For that specific column, you can specifically try

| eval invalid=if(isnull(invalid) OR invalid="", 0, invalid)
Otherwise fillnull value=0 should fill any fields that are null. You can also check if the column is actually null or not by doing this:

| eval isInvalidNull=if(isnull(invalid), 1, 0)
and compute this column just to validate that theory
