tstats not showing results for Splunk DB Input

I have a Splunk DataBase Input which is sending logs to Splunk by DB Connect app. I am trying to use tstats command on that input but no luck. The query, I am trying is as follows:
|tstats values(field1) values(field2) WHERE index=index1

If I use similar query on normal monitor input, I am getting results. Why I am unable to see for DB Input logs? Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Do you have the metadata setup on your DB connect inputs? You need to have that metadata indexed to run tstats.

Hi @kmaron,
Yes, we have defined source, sourcetype and index for the input. I didn't enable any summary_indexing for that particular index.
