Summarizing similar rows

Hi,

 

I am trying to summarize count of workflow's failed because of similar error messages.

Example:

 

Wf IDError Message
1Error - toolId 19: Record #1: Tool #16: Error transferring data: Couldn't connect to server
2Error - toolId 19: Record #2: Tool #16: Error transferring data: Couldn't connect to server
3Error - toolId 19: Record #3: Tool #16: Error transferring data: Couldn't connect to server
4Error - toolId -1: Unable to allocate memory
5

Error - toolId -1: User Canceled

 

Expected Output:

ErrorCount
Error - toolId 19: Record #1: Tool #16: Error transferring data: Couldn't connect to server3
Error - toolId -1: Unable to allocate memory1
Error - toolId -1: User Canceled1

 

I tried using Fuzzy match and able to get 80% matching records but when i try to get unique values and summarize the data i am not still getting 3 rows and count as 1.

Any suggestions?

 

Regards,

Yash

How are you getting the list of WFs and errors?  From Mongo, or log files?

@mbarone we are storing in MYSQL database and extracting the error from logs written in MYSql database table.

This is the best I could do (attached).  The filter should hold up.
