avgif ​

The avgif aggregation function calculates the average of Expression across the group where Predicate evaluates to true.

Use this function with the summarize, eventstats, and timestats operators.

Syntax ​

avgif( Expression, Predicate )

Arguments ​

• Expression: Expression used for aggregation calculation. Records with null values are ignored and not included in the calculation. Wildcards are not supported for field names.
• Predicate: Predicate that if true, the Expression calculated value will be added to the average.

Results ​

Returns the average value of Expression across the group where Predicate evaluates to true.

Examples ​

This example returns average byte count from source address 10.0.0.164:

dataset="cribl_search_sample" 
| limit 1000 
| summarize AverageSessionBytesForSrcAddr=avgif(bytes, srcaddr=="10.0.0.164")

This example returns average byte count by private source address:

dataset="cribl_search_sample" 
| limit 1000 
| summarize AverageSessionBytesForPrivateAddr=avgif(bytes, ipv4_is_private(srcaddr))
