Splunk Search

Is there a way to limit the number of events included in the search result per user?

I have some data, which includes a user id.

I can count the number of pageviews, and also the number of unique users who have viewed a page with this search

index=beacon BeaconType=pageview  | stats count, dc(INID)

I'd like to count the total number of pageviews, but cap each user to only have 10 views included. Do you know if this is possible?

Thanks

Try something like this. This will take only the 10 (if available) events per INID, rest logic is same.

index=beacon BeaconType=pageview | dedup 10 INID | stats count, dc(INID)
