My last record in the destination index is for the minute, 2020-08-11 20:05:00.

It is a continuous transform and it's status=indexing, but no new destination logs are being generated.

I have other transforms in continuous mode; I don't know why this one is failing.

see messages below... and stats attached

hmmmm stopping it and starting it again has got it outputting more destination logs again, but that defeats the point a bit!

Do I have a conflict here?  
recv\_timestamp is the originating source time of the msg  
ingest\_timestamp is added by Elasticsearch to the index at the time the doc is indexed

```
  "frequency": "1s",
  "sync": {
    "time": {
      "field": "ingest_timestamp",
      "delay": "10s"
    }
  },
  "pivot": {
    "group_by": {
      "recv_timestamp": {
        "date_histogram": {
          "field": "recv_timestamp",
          "calendar_interval": "1m"
        }
      },
```

and after the restart, it only reached the first checkpoint.  
so I've stopped and restarted again, and I expect it will pause at the next checkpoint again

I still have a problem here.  
The status will be indexing, but no data is coming out. Then after a few hours there are a splurge of new destination documents output
