series_lag_fl()

Applies to: ✅ Microsoft FabricAzure Data ExplorerAzure MonitorMicrosoft Sentinel

Applies a lag on a series.

The function series_lag_fl() is a user-defined function (UDF) that takes an expression containing a dynamic numerical array as input and shifts it backward. It's commonly used for shifting time series to test whether a pattern is new or it matches historical data.

Syntax

series_lag_fl(y_series, offset)

Learn more about syntax conventions.

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
y_series dynamic ✔️ An array cell of numeric values.
offset int ✔️ An integer specifying the required offset in bins.

Function definition

You can define the function by either embedding its code as a query-defined function, or creating it as a stored function in your database, as follows:

Define the function using the following let statement. No permissions are required.

Important

A let statement can't run on its own. It must be followed by a tabular expression statement. To run a working example of series_lag_fl(), see Example.

let series_lag_fl = (series:dynamic, offset:int)
{
    let lag_f = toscalar(range x from 1 to offset+1 step 1
    | project y=iff(x == offset+1, 1, 0)
    | summarize lag_filter = make_list(y));
    fir(series, lag_f, false)
};
// Write your query to use the function here.

Example

To use a query-defined function, invoke it after the embedded function definition.

let series_lag_fl = (series:dynamic, offset:int)
{
    let lag_f = toscalar(range x from 1 to offset+1 step 1
    | project y=iff(x == offset+1, 1, 0)
    | summarize lag_filter = make_list(y));
    fir(series, lag_f, false)
};
let dt = 1h;
let time_shift = 1d;
let bins_shift = toint(time_shift/dt);
