Hi below is my sample data-

Date State
29-05-20 01:00:00  On
29-05-20 01:10:00  Off
29-05-20 01:20:00  On
29-05-20 01:30:00  On
29-05-20 01:50:00  Off
29-05-20 01:55:00  On

Here I want to calculate "Number of Times State Went from On to Off" and "Number of Times State Went from Off to On" using streamstats command.
In above case results will be-

"Number of Times State Went from On to Off" |"Number of Times State Went from Off to On"
    2                                                      2

Can you please try this?

YOUR_SEARCH | streamstats window=2 list(State) as S | eval Status=case(mvindex(S,0)="On" AND mvindex(S,1)="Off","Number of Times State Went from On to Off",mvindex(S,0)="Off" AND mvindex(S,1)="On","Number of Times State Went from Off to On") | stats count by Status | transpose header_field=Status | fields - column

My Sample Search:

| makeresults | eval _raw="Date,State
29-05-20 01:00:00,On
29-05-20 01:10:00,Off
29-05-20 01:20:00,On
29-05-20 01:30:00,On
29-05-20 01:50:00,Off
29-05-20 01:55:00,On" | multikv forceheader=1 | table Date State | streamstats window=2 list(State) as S | eval Status=case(mvindex(S,0)="On" AND mvindex(S,1)="Off","Number of Times State Went from On to Off",mvindex(S,0)="Off" AND mvindex(S,1)="On","Number of Times State Went from Off to On") | stats count by Status | transpose header_field=Status | fields - column

Thanks
