Add GroupyBy field to the Big Number

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I want to be able to extract a metric from a group of results. For example I have a large set of results for a number of flown routes. These routes share several distinct city_pairs and I want to find the distinct count of a group of city pairs. I’d like to be able to group by city pairs and then show that list in a big number.

Describe the solution you’d like Here’s an example of the kind of query I would like to support

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (
     SELECT city_pair
    FROM myFlownRoutesTable
    GROUP BY city_pair
    HAVING ((MAX(ss_utilization) > 0)
    )

Describe alternatives you’ve considered I used the table chart to implement a group by city_pair with a having max clause. But while this table shows the results I can’t find a way to just show the number of completed routes (ie a count of the table rows)

Additional context The current Big Number

The proposed Big Number update

The Table chart has this, so I would think you can just add another control variable with the group by option…

If I understood your use case correctly, creating an ad-hoc metric COUNT(DISTINCT city_pair) with an ss_utilization > 0 WHERE clause should work.

This case might work for MAX agg but for other agg like SUM, COUNT there’s no way to do it.
