Calculated Column Errors - count conditions when like this but not like that

I would like to create a column in my dataset with a count of distinct session_id's where column event_name is 'search' but does not have an event_name called 'select_item' present as well. Hoping a beast mode will work because this is a gigantic dataset that takes hours to run. let me know if you think adding directly to the big query query would be better however.
Here is the beast mode I tried and its not liking it.
COUNT(DISTINCT session_id
CASE WHEN event_name
NOT LIKE '%select_item%' and event_name
LIKE '%search%' then 'Refined' END )
thanks!

Hmm it is validating for me when I replicate it in my instance. Can you share a screenshot of your beastmode?

Should work if you remove the then 'Refined' part at the end and move the
session_id
. See below:COUNT(DISTINCT CASE WHEN
event_name
NOT LIKE '%select_item%' andevent_name
LIKE '%search%' THENsession_id
END )Keep in mind that you are using wildcard characters around select_item and search which will return values that contain characters on either side of that string search.
