How to name NULL column

Hello,

I'm a new user to splunk and want to know how to name a NULL column. For example, see below query.

index=ac_web sourcetype=access_log response_time > 5 earliest=-7d@d latest=now | timechart span=1h count by cs-uri-stem

When I run this query, I get "NULL" name for the second column. How can I name it ?

Thank you all !!

Try fillnull....

index=ac_web sourcetype=access_log response_time > 5 earliest=-7d@d latest=now
| fillnull value=MyNullName cs-uri-stem
| timechart span=1h count by cs-uri-stem

Hi you can also do it by using tostring
eval cs-uri-stem=tostring(cs-uri-stem)

The above returns value to "Null"(in most of the cases)

then

|time span=1h count by cs-uri-stem

You can choose any method to so
