The AVG function calculates the average value of a numeric field.
Syntax
AVG(X)
Parameters
X- a field or expression that evaluates to an unaggregated number.
How the AVG function works
The AVG function takes 1 parameter, which must be the name of a numeric field, or a numeric expression. AVG returns the average for all values of that field or expression.
You can't apply this function to a pre-aggregated field (Aggregation equals Auto), or to an expression which is the result of another aggregation function. For example, a formula such as AVG(SUM(x)) will produce an error.
Examples
In these examples, the parameters passed to AVG are unaggregated numeric dimensions (i.e., they have an Aggregation type of None ).
| Example formula | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
AVG(Latency) |

AVG(CASE WHEN My Dimension < 1 THEN.5 WHEN My Dimension>= 1 AND My Dimension < 5 THEN 1 ELSE 2 END)
