Log clearing not showing up from tstats?

I can search my way into finding the result of a log clearing event bit if I use a data model with tstats it doesn't show. I think this might be because the action shows as action=deleted but the reality is I don't' know.

I am attaching a png of the issue and I and just wondering what is the best way to go about fixing this or changing it so I get it in the way it fits.

Hi

you could check what you have on this data model by 

| from datamodel:"Change.Auditing_Changes"

Then just add needed search after that based what you are looking.

This query shows that you have data on this data model. Now you should add “| search ….” with those search terms which you already have on your first tstats and try to figure if those are present in your DM or are there something which is missing. This is the way to “debug” your tstats from DM.

None of those. I mean your second query on your 1st post. Something like this

| from datamodel:"Change.Auditing_Changes"
| search nodename=All_Changes.Auditing_Changes All_Changes.action=cleared

That way you could found if those fields/values are on your DM or not. Or if you have some typos or other issue on your condition.

Probably this is in wrong order and maybe nodename hasn't defined fields at this time

search nodename=All_Changes.Auditing_Changes

Try to check what you have on fields  All_Changes.Auditing_Changes and All_Changes.action.

Also if you want use nodename as a value instead of field you should surround it by " like "nodename" and also cleared as "cleared" if also that is a value.
