Date histogram aggregations

The date_histogram aggregation uses date math to generate histograms for time-series data.

For example, you can find how many hits your website gets per month:

GET opensearch_dashboards_sample_data_logs/_search
{
  "size": 0,
  "aggs": {
    "logs_per_month": {
      "date_histogram": {
        "field": "@timestamp",
        "interval": "month"
      }
    }
  }
}

{% include copy-curl.html %}

Example response

...
"aggregations" : {
  "logs_per_month" : {
    "buckets" : [
      {
        "key_as_string" : "2020-10-01T00:00:00.000Z",
        "key" : 1601510400000,
        "doc_count" : 1635
      },
      {
        "key_as_string" : "2020-11-01T00:00:00.000Z",
        "key" : 1604188800000,
        "doc_count" : 6844
      },
      {
        "key_as_string" : "2020-12-01T00:00:00.000Z",
        "key" : 1606780800000,
        "doc_count" : 5595
      }
    ]
  }
}
}

The response has three months worth of logs. If you graph these values, you can see the peak and valleys of the request traffic to your website month over month.
