bin()
Applies to: ✅ Microsoft Fabric ✅ Azure Data Explorer ✅ Azure Monitor ✅ Microsoft Sentinel
Rounds values down to an integer multiple of a given bin size.
Used frequently in combination with summarize by ...
.
If you have a scattered set of values, they'll be grouped into a smaller set of specific values.
The
bin()
andfloor()
functions are equivalent
Syntax
bin(
value,
roundTo)

Parameters
Name | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
value | int, long, real, timespan, or datetime | ✔️ | The value to round down. |
roundTo | int, long, real, or timespan | ✔️ | The "bin size" that divides value. |
Returns
The nearest multiple of roundTo below value. Null values, a null bin size, or a negative bin size will result in null.
Examples
Numeric bin
print bin(4.5, 1)
Output
print_0 |
---|
4 |
Timespan bin
print bin(time(16d), 7d)
Output
print_0 |
---|
14:00:00:00 |
Datetime bin
print bin(datetime(1970-05-11 13:45:07), 1d)
Output
print_0 |

Pad a table with null bins
When there are rows for bins with no corresponding row in the table, we recommend to pad the table with those bins. The following query looks at strong wind storm events in California for a week in April. However, there are no events on some of the days.
let Start = datetime('2007-04-07');
let End = Start + 7d;
StormEvents
| where StartTime between (Start .. End)
| where State == "CALIFORNIA" and EventType == "Strong Wind"
| summarize PropertyDamage=sum(DamageProperty) by bin(StartTime, 1d)
Output
StartTime | PropertyDamage |
---|---|
2007-04-08T00:00:00Z | 3000 |
2007-04-11T00:00:00Z | 1000 |
2007-04-12T00:00:00Z | 105000 |
In order to represent the full week, the following query pads the result table with null values for the missing days. Here's a step-by-step explanation of the process:
- Use the
union
operator to add more rows to the table. - The
range
operator produces a table that has a single row and column. - The
mv-expand
operator over therange
function creates as many rows as there are bins betweenStartTime
andEndTime
. - Use a
PropertyDamage
of0
. - The
summarize
operator groups together bins from the original table to the table produced by theunion
expression. This process ensures that the output has one row per bin whose value is either zero or the original count.
let Start = datetime('2007-04-07');
let End = Start + 7d;
StormEvents
| where StartTime between (Start .. End)
| where State == "CALIFORNIA" and EventType == "Strong Wind"
| union (
range x from 1 to 1 step 1
| mv-expand StartTime=range(Start, End, 1d) to typeof(datetime)
| extend PropertyDamage=0
)
| summarize PropertyDamage=sum(DamageProperty) by bin(StartTime, 1d)
Output
StartTime | PropertyDamage |
---|---|
