Explore functions reference

When you start to create your own custom metrics and attributes, you'll use functions a lot to help you perform comparisons, calculations, and manipulations to your business information.

Explore offers many functions to help you work with, for example, dates, text strings, calculations and more. Use this article as a reference to help you discover the available functions and how to use them.

This article contains the following topics:

• Getting started
• Basic mathematical operators
• Attribute functions
• Date functions
• Logical functions
• Numeric functions
• Text functions
• Tag functions
• Array functions
• Trigonometric functions
• Administration functions
• URL functions
• JSON functions
• REGEXP functions
• Cryptography functions

Getting started

You can browse for, and select functions when you create a standard calculated metric or attribute. In the formula editing window, you can either begin to type the name of a function or click Add under Functions and choose your function from the list.

When the function is added to a formula, it will appear with standard values. You must replace these with the values you want to use in your formula. In this example, you want to return only your tickets with subject lines beginning with "[Flagged]".

1. In the calculations menu (), click Standard calculated attribute.
2. Name your calculated attribute. This example uses Subject begins with [Flagged].
3. Under Functions, click Add.
4. In the formula window, type IF .
5. Under Functions, click Add.
6. Search for LEFTPART. Either use the search box, click Filter to scope the values down to the Text category, or scroll through the list until you find the function you want.
7. Next to LEFTPART, click +.
8. You'll now see the formula IF LEFTPART(_text,_number). Change the _text parameter to the Ticket Subject attribute. Either highlight _text and then choose Ticket subject from the Fields menu, or amend the formula manually to add the attribute.

   The formula will now read IF LEFTPART([Ticket subject],_number)

9. Change the text _number to the number of characters you want to compare. [Flagged] has nine characters, so enter 9.

   The formula will now read IF LEFTPART([Ticket subject],9)

10. Finally, add the condition we are searching for; in this case, the text "Flagged". The final formula will read:

    IF LEFTPART([Ticket subject],9)="Flagged" THEN [TicketID] ENDIF

    

Now, when you use this attribute in your report, it will only return tickets with a subject line beginning "[Flagged]"

Basic mathematical operators

In addition to the above functions, you can also use the following basic mathematical operators to perform calculations and connect text:

Operator	Description
+	Add two numeric values, or join two text strings.
-	Subtract one value from another.
*	Multiply two values
/	Divide one value by another
=	Test if one value is equal to another value
!=	Test if one value is not equal to another value
%	Computes the modulo (or remainder) after dividing one value by another. Example: 5%2 returns 1, 20%3 returns 2

Attribute functions

These functions let you perform basic operations to quantify the number of attributes returned by your query.

Function	Description
COUNT_VALUES(_attribute)	Counts the number of values of the attribute you supply. Repeat values are included. Example: COUNT_VALUES([Assignees]) returns the total number of names assigned to tickets.
DCOUNT_VALUES(_attribute)	Counts the distinct number of different values of the attribute you supply. Example: DCOUNT_VALUES([Assignees]) returns the total number of different names assigned to tickets.
ATTRIBUTE_FIX(aggregator(metric name), attribute1, attribute2)	Returns the value of aggregator(metric name) aggregated by the attributes you specify (in this example attribute1 and attribute2). No other attributes can affect the results from this metric. Example: ATTRIBUTE_FIX(MED(First Reply Time (min), [Ticket created - Year], [Ticket created - Month]) For more help and examples, see Working with aggregation level functions.
ATTRIBUTE_ADD(aggregator(metric name), attribute1, attribute2)	Returns the value of aggregator(metric name) aggregated to all attributes in the query in addition to attribute1 and attribute2.

Formatting dates

The DATE_FORMAT function render full timestamps as different types of dates. Each format is represented by a different letter. You enter the associated letter in the format part of the DATE_FORMAT function. Letters must be entered in double quotes.

Note: You can combine the date or time components to display more information about a date. For example if you want to view the month and year of a date you could use "MM-yyyy", or if you want to view the minutes and seconds of a date you could use "mm-ss". If you choose to use multiple date components at once, you must include a dash between the different formats.

The table shows formats you can use. The examples use the timestamp, 2017-11-03T03:18:25.
