How to retrieve specific timestamps for specific values ?

malice

Hello everyone,

I am currently developing a use case in which I have the below info:

Username

User Status

User Code

Time of Event per User Status update

user A

0

0

1

1

xxxxx

2021-11-13 22:22:15

2021-11-13 23:40:09

2021-11-13 23:45:09

2021-11-13 23:50:09

user B

0

1

yyyyy

2021-11-13 22:40:09

2021-11-13 22:50:09

user A

0

1

ggggg

2021-11-13 22:50:09

2021-11-13 22:55:09

2021-11-13 22:58:09

 

I would like  to find for each user the time difference between the timestamps of the first occurrence of status 0 and then the first occurrence of status 1.

So based on the above table, I would like to extract the timestamp of 2021-11-13 22:22:15 for User Status 0 and the timestamp 2021-11-13 23:45:09 for User Status 1 for the user A.

 

So my search query so far looks like it:

 

| my index
| sort UserStatus

| transaction mvlist=true Username UserStatus | search eventcount >1 | UserStatus =0 and UserStatus=1

 

Any help will be much appreciated! Thanks

What is your original data? Because this already looks like some calculated stats table.

Try something like this

| stats earliest(_time) as time by Username 'User Status'
| eval time0=if('User Status'=0,time,null())
| eval time1=if('User Status'=1,time,null())
| stats values(time0) as time0 values(time1) as time1 by Username
| eval diff=time1-time0
