Hello Splunk Community, 

I have created a query to calculate the business date of the file which arrived to be loaded & the date/time it arrived, which outputs the following (dummy data used): 

FileBusiness DateArrival DateArrival Time
File A22-11-202106-12-20216.51
File B22-11-202106-12-20216.55
File B22-11-202106-12-20216.56

 

I want to create a new column which highlights if a file (with the same business date) arrived more than once on the same day. So for example the output would look like so: 

FileBusiness DateArrival DateArrival TimeCount 
File A22-11-202106-12-20216.511
File B22-11-202106-12-20216.552
File B22-11-202106-12-20216.562

 

Can anyone help improving my query to include this new column? 

Thanks, 

Zoe

hi @zoebanning,

You can use eventstats command to calculate count.

<your_existing_query> | eventstats count as Count by File, "Arrival Date"
