HI Erdem.

There is currently no out-of-the-box way to do this in Kibana or Elasticsearch. There is a history of discussions on this, especially in [this thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/using-painless-to-calculate-durations/119495).

I would recommend finding a way to calculate the elapsed time at ingest. The [Logstash Elapsed filter plugin](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-filters-elapsed.html) is a good example of this.
