Using the NQE Group Function to Group Rows with Multiple Matching Columns
You can use the NQE group function to collapse rows that have multiple matching columns.In the following example, we make a list of all devices in the network (and store in a list called data), and group all the devices in data together that have matching values for Vendor, Model, OS, and OS Version. The matching values are grouped by attributes.Note that list stored in data just has device names. We don’t actually list all the device names within the select statement. The device is the identifier for each unique element that is hidden when you use the group function. We access the list of devices in each group (within the list data) with a foreach loop in order to count the unique items and provide a total in the last column./** * @intent List devices grouped by matching Vendor, Model, OS, and Version and the total number of devices in each group. * @description List devices grouped by matching Vendor, Model, OS, and Version and the total number of devices in each group. */foreach dev
