Date Time shows empty in lens, but not in discover pane

I'm working on a beat to pull in GPU/CPU temperature data into Elasticsearch.

My date is correctly parsed from "yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss" into a date time. You can see my original object datetimestamp vs the same data in the discover pane.

My index marks this as a date, and the data is visible within discover, but when I attempt to add it as a time tracking method within a Lens, it shows that it is empty and lists it as an empty field.

I've attempted to search for a solution, but I'm not finding the specific answer. Thank you for your time.

Note: I used Kibana's index template builder to build my index. Here is the JSON from the preview pane:

This is interesting.

Two things for you to check -

  1. Can you please make sure this is set as timefield on your index pattern. You can check it here - under index patterns -

  2. How have you set the timepicker on lens page?

Thanks,
Bhavya
