Palo Alto Networks XSIAM-Analyst Exam - Topic 3 Question 14 Discussion

Actual exam question for Palo Alto Networks's XSIAM-Analyst exam

Question #: 14
Topic #: 3

[All XSIAM-Analyst Questions]

What can be used to filter out empty values in the query results table?

A<name of field> != null or <field name> !=

B<name of field> != empty or <field name> != 'NA'

C<name of field> != null or <field name> != 'NA'

D<name of field> != empty or <field name> != ''

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The correct answer is C -- <name of field> != null or <field name> != 'NA'.

Filtering with != null removes records with null values, and != 'NA' further removes records that explicitly have 'NA' as the value, ensuring the table only displays meaningful results.

'Use filters like <field> != null or <field> != 'NA' in XQL queries to exclude empty or placeholder values from results.'

Option A is solid too, but "NA" is common in datasets.

I think option C is the best. It covers both null and "NA".

D seems too restrictive, what if empty is valid?

Wait, isn't "NA" considered a valid value sometimes?

I definitely recall that filtering out "NA" is important, but I can't remember if it should be in the same context as null or empty.

I’m a bit confused about the difference between null and empty. I thought both could be used interchangeably, but now I’m not so sure.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I feel like using "empty" is crucial, so maybe option D is the best choice?

I think option C sounds familiar, but I'm not entirely sure if "NA" is the right term to use for filtering out empty values.
