Union of two fields

I have a query that produces results that has two columns :

| field1 | field2 | 

Field1 & Field2 have same domain, i.e. takes same set of values. I need to find out Union of the distinct values from both fields.

Any ideas?

Something like this:

...your search...
| stats values(field1) as f1values values(field2) as f2values 
| eval allvalues=mvdedup(mvappend(f1values,f2values))

ought to work.

It's not clear what you want the output to be. This will show all the combinations of field1 and field2 in your data.

<your search> | dedup field1 field2 | ...
