Hi Guru's. I am trying to find events greater than the average of the last 10. I also want to display my results in a table. It doesn't work.
Here is my search string.

index="mydata" |streamstats avg(totalms) as myavg current=f window=10|search totalms>myavg |table totalms myavg

In this case, you may get better results using the where command which uses eval expressions to filter results.

index="mydata" 
  | streamstats avg(totalms) as myavg current=f window=10 
  | where totalms>myavg 
  | table totalms myavg
