+# CountIf
+
+> This query is available as `countif`.
+
+CountIf returns the percentage of points in the database that satisfy the condition supplied.
+
+The following conditions are available:
+
+- `!` or `!=` or `<>`, different than
+- `=` or `:`, equal to
+- `>`, greater than
+- `<`, less than
+- `>=`, greater or equal to
+- `<=`, less or equal to
+
+The target number and the desired condition can be set using the `group_options` query parameter, as a string, like in these examples:
+
+- `!0`, to match any number except zero.
+- `>=-3` to match any number bigger or equal to -3.
+
+. When an invalid condition is given, the web server can deliver a not accurate response.
+
+## how to use
+
+This query cannot be used in alarms.
+
+`countif` changes the units of charts. The result of the calculation is always from zero to 1, expressing the percentage of database points that matched the condition. 
+
+In APIs and badges can be used like this: `&group=countif&group_options=>10` in the URL.
