How to sum multiple columns by multiple names?

[tarantula]

Hi, how do I sum multiple columns using multiple columns? For instance, my data looks like this:

How do I get two columns with just Name and Quantity that would combine the results in the table? Essentially:

1. Name Quantity
2. Car 3
3. Plane 2

and etc.
Thank you!

hi @tarantula,

Try this:

<your base search> | 
| strcat Name1 ":" Quantity1 "," Name2 ":" Quantity2 "," Name3 ":" Quantity3 zip 
| makemv delim="," zip 
| mvexpand zip 
| eval zip=split(zip, ":"), Name=mvindex(zip, 0), Quantity=mvindex(zip, 1) 
| where Name!="" 
| stats sum(Quantity) as Quantity by Name

Sample query:

| makeresults
| eval _raw=" Name1,Quantity1,Name2,Quantity2,Name3,Quantity3
Car,3,,,Bicycle,2
Plane,2,,,Car,1
Boat,2,Plane,1,,
Car,6,,,,,"
| multikv forceheader=1
| strcat Name1 ":" Quantity1 "," Name2 ":" Quantity2 "," Name3 ":" Quantity3 zip
| makemv delim="," zip
| mvexpand zip
| eval zip=split(zip, ":"), Name=mvindex(zip, 0), Quantity=mvindex(zip, 1)
| where Name!=""
| stats sum(Quantity) as Quantity by Name
