Hi Splunkers, I have this search bellow:

index=br_activedirectory_microsoft EventCode=4624 Account_Domain=AGBANESPA Account_Name=A* earliest=-169h latest=now()
| fields Account_Domain, Account_Name, Source_Network_Address
| dedup Account_Domain, Account_Name, Source_Network_Address
| lookup dnslookup clientip as Source_Network_Address OUTPUT clienthost
| eval user = substr(mvindex(Account_Name,1),2,4)
| eval hostname = substr(clienthost,3,4)
| where user !=hostname
| lookup new_hostname_lookup hostname as hostname OUTPUT ENDEREÇO, UF, REG, CEP , REDE
| lookup new_user_lookup user as user OUTPUT ENDEREÇO_user, UF_user, REG_user, CEP_user ,REDE_user
| where REG !=REG_user AND REDE !=REDE_user
| rename "Account_Name" as "Historico de logins com sucesso"
| timechart count by "Historico de logins com sucesso"

And the output is this:

![alt text

How do I remove from my search this "-" and "OTHER"??

Thanks!

@lucasdc At the end of your search you can use fields - "OTHER" , "-".

<your query> | fields - OTHER, "-"

Hi @lucasdc,

You can use the option useother=f for timechart to remove the OTHER column. I advise you as well to set the number of columns you want your timechart to show, it defaults to 10 with an OTHER column grouping the rest, you can change it by setting the limit parameter for timechart. You timechart would then look like this :

| timechart count by "Historico de logins com sucesso" useother=f limit=15

And to remove any other field you can use field -so it would be field - "-" to remove the "-" column. Your whole query becomes :

   ...| timechart count by "Historico de logins com sucesso" useother=f limit=15 | field - "-"

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers,
David
