Hi niketnilay,

Thanks for your suggestion, it seems its working to avoid transactions which has logout, still filtering with eventcounts etc...to get the exact active sessions even i search 2hrs/8hrs back...

Thanks..

Requires more details on your transaction query and sample events

 | search NOT ("abcd")

However the same should always be done in base search to filter results upfront.
