Plot Response Time Events from Web Log

Hi there,

This should be a pretty simple question. I have looked around for a while. We have a web log we are trying to do some analysis on.

I would like to plot all the events in the last 4 hours (very low volume) and see the response time graph.

The response time field is called ms and it's in milliseconds (ms=185).

Help please.

Thank you!

You could use table or timechart commands to format the data for graphing.

... | table _time,ms
... | timechart avg(ms) min(ms) max(ms)

If you provide a sample of your logs I could probably give a better example.

Thank you!!!

'| table _time,ms" worked perfectly. I really appreciate the help

Here is a line from the log. This is from a Google App Engine (GAE) log.
