Stats Dc & Substr

Hi, I wonder whether someone may be able to help me please.

I'm trying to change the 'dedup' element of the query below to a stats dc:

index=main auditSource=ntc "detail.method"=POST detail.statusCode=204 | dedup tags.path | head 8000 | eval `nino=substr('tags.path',6,9) | table nino _time`

I've changed dedup tags.path to stats dc(tags.path), but when I run the query I'm no longer returning any results.

could someone tell me please where I've gone wrong.

Many thanks and kind regards

Chris

Hi, for those who may be interested, I solved this with the following query:

index=main auditSource=ntc "detail.method"=POST detail.statusCode=204 | head 8000 | eval nino=substr('tags.path',6,9) | stats dc(nino) by nino, _time |table nino _time

Kind Regards

Chris
