Aggregate Functions

This function returns the arithmetic average value of an attribute from records with the same key value.

In detail, it returns the sum of all values for a key value, divided by the number of values that are not null.

It is only available for numeric attributes.

This function returns the maximum value of an attribute from records with the same key value.

It is available for numeric, string and date/time attributes.

Strings are ordered alphabetically, with the shortest strings first.

This function returns the minimum value of an attribute from records with the same key value.

It is available for numeric, string and date/time attributes.

 Strings are ordered alphabetically, with the shortest strings first.

This function can be applied to a numeric field, to return the percentage of the sum of values for each key value in relation to the total sum of values.

You should use this function in conjunction with one or more grouping attributes - each combination of values from these grouping attributes gives a key value.

For example, you have a stream with 2 fields:

and you create a grid view:

• dragging in the attribute Label - which automatically becomes a grouping attribute when one or more of the other attributes are aggregated
• dragging in the attribute Number, and applying the aggregate function Percent
• setting the rounding on the stream view attribute Number to 2 decimal places

This will give the view:

This function returns the sum of all values of an attribute from records with the same key value.
