tstat and timechart

tscollect was leveraged to put data into time series index files. I am able to use tstat to calculate statistics. How would I go about leveraging timechart with tstat?

Here is what I want to work:
| tstats prestats=t field1, field2, field3 FROM my_ns | timechart avg(field1) by field2

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Joe

Joe,
Try using this:

| tstats prestats=t count as count FROM my_ns groupby field1,field2,field3,_time | timechart avg(field1) as field1_avg by field2
