Let me re-phrase what is the scenario. In our application, we run a data report utility on demand which generates loggers of total count files in the application. While making a Splunk dashboard, I want to show the total files count generated over the period of time. This I a doing using timechart. However, I also wanted to show total file count growth compared to the last total count. The challenge I am facing here is, we don't have any specific frequency (1d, or 1week, 1month) for utility execution. The utility may be invoked 2-3 times in a day or once in 2 days from end users. The goal is to showcase total asset count whenever utility is executed and how much is the growth after last execution. I found the "delta" keyword which may help me but still struggling to leverage it to get exact result.
The end goal is to show a stacked bar chart with the upper stack representing the count growth and lower stack representing the total count.
