Many thanks in advance for any help here..

I know what i need to do in principle but cant nail the Splunk search.... I have tried to use transaction and first last but cant it to work.

I have a csv file exported monthy and ingested into splunk, need to calculate a monthy $ value for a given combination

sudo search....

for the FIRST time you see foo=1 and bar=10, select field x
for the LAST time you see foo=1 and bar=10, select field y and x
for the LAST time you see foo=1 and bar=11, select field y and x
for the LAST time you see foo=1 and bar=n..., select field y and x
For the LAST time you see foo=1 select field y

add x+y+x+y+x+y = monthy $

for the FIRST time you see foo=2 and bar=20, select field x
for the LAST time you see foo=2 and bar=20, select field y and x
for the LAST time you see foo=2 and bar=21, select field y and x
for the LAST time you see foo=2 and bar=n..., select field y and x
For the LAST time you see foo=2 select field y

add x+y+x+y+x+y = monthy $

and so on.... any ideas

  • there are times and dates in each row
  • foo and bar will always be uniq

with the example below, the desired output in a table would be...

1 = $4099.66
2 = $5672.07


   ID   Start           Stop            y       foo     x       bar

Generally (not the complete solution but you can iterate it out) like this:

...  | eventstats latest(y) AS lastyBYfoo BY foo | stats first(lastyBYfoo) AS lastyBYfoo earliest(x) AS firstxBYfoobar earliest(y) AS firstyBYfoobar latest(x) AS lastxBYfoobar latest(y) AS lastyBYfoobar by foo bar | eval monthly1=if(foo=1 AND bar=10,firstxBYfoobar + lastyBYfoobar + lastxBYfoobar ,0) + if(foo=1 AND bar=11,lastxBYfoobar+lastyBYfoobar,0) + ... + if(foo=1,lastyBYfoo,0)

I would save everything after | monthly1 as a macro and call it like this:

... | eventstats earliest(x) AS firstxBYfoobar earliest(y) AS firstyBYfoobar latest(x) AS lastxBYfoobar latest(y) AS lastyBYfoobar by foo bar | eventstats latest(y) AS lastyBYfoo | dedup foo bar | `monthly(1)` | `monthly(2)` ...
