Hello,  
My problem is quite simple but I can't find the solution.  
I'm using Python to make GET calls on index using EQL.  
I would like to make this search only on the 5 past minutes logs. How can I do it ? Specify something in the URL ? In the query ?  
Here is my code :

```auto
header = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
data = '{"query": "sequence by host.name,source.ip with maxspan=15s [authentication where event.outcome == \\"failure\\"] by user.name \\n[authentication where event.outcome == \\"success\\"] by user.name \\n"}'
res = requests.get("http://localhost:9200/auditbeat*/_eql/search?pretty", headers=header, data=data, auth=auth, verify=False)

```

Thank you !
