=== Avg Bucket Aggregation
experimental[]
A sibling pipeline aggregation which calculates the (mean) average value of a specified metric in a sibling aggregation.
The specified metric must be numeric and the sibling aggregation must be a multi-bucket aggregation.
==== Syntax
An `avg_bucket` aggregation looks like this in isolation:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
{
"avg_bucket": {
"buckets_path": "the_sum"
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
.`avg_bucket` Parameters
|===
|Parameter Name |Description |Required |Default Value
|`buckets_path` |The path to the buckets we wish to find the average for (see <<buckets-path-syntax>> for more
details) |Required |
|`gap_policy` |The policy to apply when gaps are found in the data (see <<gap-policy>> for more
details)|Optional, defaults to `skip` ||
|`format` |format to apply to the output value of this aggregation |Optional, defaults to `null` |
|===
The following snippet calculates the average of the total monthly `sales`:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
{
"aggs" : {
"sales_per_month" : {
"date_histogram" : {
"field" : "date",
"interval" : "month"
},
"aggs": {
"sales": {
"sum": {
"field": "price"
}
}
}
},
"avg_monthly_sales": {
"avg_bucket": {
"buckets_path": "sales_per_month>sales" <1>
}
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
<1> `buckets_path` instructs this avg_bucket aggregation that we want the (mean) average value of the `sales` aggregation in the
`sales_per_month` date histogram.
And the following may be the response:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------

"sales_per_month": {
