The granularity field determines how data gets bucketed across the time dimension, i.e how it gets aggregated by hour, day, minute, etc.
It can be specified either as a string for simple granularities or as an object for arbitrary granularities.
Simple Granularities
Simple granularities are specified as a string and bucket timestamps by their UTC time (i.e. days start at 00:00 UTC).
Supported granularity strings are: all, none, minute, fifteen_minute, thirty_minute, hour and day
* all buckets everything into a single bucket
* none does not bucket data (it actually uses the granularity of the index - minimum here is none which means millisecond granularity). Using none in a [timeseries query|TimeSeriesQuery](timeseries query|TimeSeriesQuery.html) is currently not recommended (the system will try to generate 0 values for all milliseconds that didn’t exist, which is often a lot).
Duration Granularities
Duration granularities are specified as an exact duration in milliseconds and timestamps are returned as UTC.
They also support specifying an optional origin, which defines where to start counting time buckets from (doc_pages to 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z).
<code>{"type": "duration", "duration": "7200000"}</code>
This chunks up every 2 hours.
<code>{"type": "duration", "duration": "3600000", "origin": "2012-01-01T00:30:00Z"}</code>
This chunks up every hour on the half-hour.
Period Granularities
Period granularities are specified as arbitrary period combinations of years, months, weeks, hours, minutes and seconds (e.g. P2W, P3M, PT1H30M, PT0.750S) in ISO8601 format.
They support specifying a time zone which determines where period boundaries start and also determines the timezone of the returned timestamps.
By doc_page years start on the first of January, months start on the first of the month and weeks start on Mondays unless an origin is specified.
Time zone is optional (doc_pages to UTC) Origin is optional (doc_pages to 1970-01-01T00:00:00 in the given time zone)
<code>{"type": "period", "period": "P2D", "timeZone": "America/Los_Angeles"}</code>
This will bucket by two day chunks in the Pacific timezone.
<code>{"type": "period", "period": "P3M", "timeZone": "America/Los_Angeles", "origin": "2012-02-01T00:00:00-08:00"}</code>
This will bucket by 3 month chunks in the Pacific timezone where the three-month quarters are defined as starting from February.
Supported time zones: timezone support is provided by the Joda Time library, which uses the standard IANA time zones. Joda Time supported timezones
