Thanks counter rate helped but the aggregation goes to a day max. What I'd like to do is build a dashboard over the last year (for instance) and get a bar graph where each bar represents a month and shows the number of created issues that month (one bar) and the number of closed issues that month (another bar next to it). I guess using a formula for this should work? It's a math operation between the first and the last value in the bucket...
Ideally this should be dynamic the same way Kibana does for a bunch of things. So if you show a few years, that would be by quarter or something.
