Weighted average in Azure Log Analytics
Hi everybody,
I'm new in Azure Log Analytics /KQL/
Language that AppInsights uses
How can i calculate weighted average?
Thank you
- this is super weird. i had done the same thing with 'by Week' stuff before I replied to you.
and It didn't work. there was some mistake with 'By'.
and now it works! ha-ha
Thank you, Clive! You helped me a lot!

Thank you so much for your response. It is very helpful!
I also have column with weeks in my table, how can i calculate weighted_avg within each week?
In excel i usually do it using IF clause logic:
SUMPRODUCT(--(weeks!$C:$C=$A6),weight!$I:$I,value!$G:$G)/SUMIF(weeks!$C:$C,$A6,weight!$I:$I)
Can do it somehow like this in AppInsights?- CliveWatsonFormer Employee
Hello,
Its always easier if you can provide the actual data or an example, what format is the "weeks" column in, is it a timestamp, a week number etc....
Would my datatable look like this?
let t = datatable (Value:int, Weight:int, Week:string)[20,1,"Week1",40,2,"Week2",90,3,"Week3",];I assume you want to see a line that says:Project <weighted avg>, <week name or number>
