hey! i indexed the iis logs. when i type in the search field sourcetype=iis, i see a lot of information in text form. the goal is that i can create a chart with the data volumes of iis for example. another example is, that i can see in a chart, which error appears frequently.

thanks in advance!

If you can provide some sample logs and expected output, we can help you write required search query.

You can try: sourcetype=iis errors | stats count by host | sort -count
