This section should be at the same sub-level as other sections in the auto date-histogram docs, otherwise it is rendered on to another page and is confusing for users to understand what it's in reference to.

=== Auto-interval Date Histogram Aggregation
|
|
|
|
A multi-bucket aggregation similar to the <<search-aggregations-bucket-datehistogram-aggregation>> except
|
|
instead of providing an interval to use as the width of each bucket, a target number of buckets is provided
|
|
indicating the number of buckets needed and the interval of the buckets is automatically chosen to best achieve
|
|
that target. The number of buckets returned will always be less than or equal to this target number.
|
|
|
|
The buckets field is optional, and will default to 10 buckets if not specified.
|
|
|
|
Requesting a target of 10 buckets.

==== Keys
|
|
|
|
Internally, a date is represented as a 64 bit number representing a timestamp
|
|
in milliseconds-since-the-epoch. These timestamps are returned as the bucket
|
|
++key++s. The `key_as_string` is the same timestamp converted to a formatted
|
|
date string using the format specified with the `format` parameter:
|
|
|
|
TIP: If no `format` is specified, then it will use the first date
|
|
<<mapping-date-format,format>> specified in the field mapping.

|

|
|
==== Intervals
|
|
|
|
The interval of the returned buckets is selected based on the data collected by the
|
|
aggregation so that the number of buckets returned is less than or equal to the number
|
|
requested. The possible intervals returned are:
|
|
|
|
[horizontal]
|
|
seconds:: In multiples of 1, 5, 10 and 30
|
|
minutes:: In multiples of 1, 5, 10 and 30
|
|
hours:: In multiples of 1, 3 and 12
|
|
days:: In multiples of 1, and 7
|
|
months:: In multiples of 1, and 3
|
|
years:: In multiples of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100
|
|
|
|
In the worst case, where the number of daily buckets are too many for the requested
|
|
number of buckets, the number of buckets returned will be 1/7th of the number of
|
|
buckets requested.
|
|
|
|
==== Time Zone
|
|
|
|
Date-times are stored in Elasticsearch in UTC. By default, all bucketing and
|
|
rounding is also done in UTC. The `time_zone` parameter can be used to indicate
|
|
that bucketing should use a different time zone.
|
|
|
|
Time zones may either be specified as an ISO 8601 UTC offset (e.g. `+01:00` or
|
|
`-08:00`) or as a timezone id, an identifier used in the TZ database like
|
|
`America/Los_Angeles`.
|
|
|

Now three 1-hour buckets are still returned but the first bucket starts at
|
|
11:00pm on 30 September 2015 since that is the local time for the bucket in
|
|
the specified time zone.

|
|
<1> The `key_as_string` value represents midnight on each day
|
|
in the specified time zone.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: When using time zones that follow DST (daylight savings time) changes,
|
|
buckets close to the moment when those changes happen can have slightly different
|
|
sizes than neighbouring buckets.
|
|
For example, consider a DST start in the `CET` time zone: on 27 March 2016 at 2am,
|
|
clocks were turned forward 1 hour to 3am local time. If the result of the aggregation
|
|
was daily buckets, the bucket covering that day will only hold data for 23 hours
|
|
instead of the usual 24 hours for other buckets. The same is true for shorter intervals
|
|
like e.g. 12h. Here, we will have only a 11h bucket on the morning of 27 March when the
|
|
DST shift happens.
|
|
|
|
==== Scripts
|
|
|
|
Like with the normal <<search-aggregations-bucket-datehistogram-aggregation, `date_histogram`>>, both document level
|
|
scripts and value level scripts are supported. This aggregation does not however, support the `min_doc_count`,
|
|
`extended_bounds` and `order` parameters.
|
|
|
|
==== Missing value
|
|
|
|
The `missing` parameter defines how documents that are missing a value should be treated.
|
|
By default they will be ignored but it is also possible to treat them as if they
|
|
had a value.
