Hi @richgalloway 

 

The sample query with index details as below.

 

Index A 

ticket number , job name

Index B

Job Name,Status

Query :-

index=A 
| table ticket_number,job_name
| join type=left job_name
[search index=B 
| table Job_Name, Status
|rename Job_Name as "job_name"
]

That query looks like it should work fine.  Just make sure the field names are exactly as they appear in the indexes.

If you still have trouble getting it to work, try this alternative query.

(index=A ticket_number=* job_name=*) OR (index=B Job_Name=*)
| rename Job_Name as job_name
| stats values(*) as * by job_name
