Timechart but based on 2+ more user selections

Hi everyone,

I have a line chart which works perfectly but only for one single value:

index=events ComputerName=* Account_Name=*** EventCode=$event_code_input$ |
| timechart count by EventCode

As you can see it reads EventCode as a user input. This is a multi-selection box. 

So if the user selects: 

4624 it plots the line - no issue

But if they select 4624 AND 4625, it produces an error. 

 

I've tried many different variations and chart types but no success. 

Thanks

The timechart command accepts only one field name in the by clause.  Anything else will result in an error.
