How do I use addcoltotals with a stats list or with stats values?

I'm trying to include the totals for each line value after running a stats list or values on a field with a numeric value and pipe addcoltotals , but it is skipping any values that are represented in my list or values table visualization. Anyone know how to get this to work?

| stats values(Total) as Total, values(example) as example by thing
| table thing, example, Total
| addcoltotals labelfield=thing label="Grand Total:"

Hi,

Can you try something like that

| eventstats sum(Total) as GrandTotal by things
| stats values(Total) as Total, values(example) as example values(GrandTotal) as GrandTotal by thing
| table thing, example, Total,GrandTotal

Doing the sum of the Total before should be a good solution.

Your search is almost correct try using sum(Total) instead of values.

Your search | stats sum(Total) as Total by host | addcoltotals labelfield="fieldName" label="GrandTotal" | your table command

When you do list or value even on numeric values I believe the list command converts it into string and that is why you cannot add multivalued column. I would rather do it as

  stats sum(Total) by Example Thing

Can you please give an example of data or output that you are expecting? Anyways addcoltotals will not work with list or value as they are non-numeric
