Hi,

I'm trying to do a pie chart using some filter. Basically I want a percentage of OK / KO depending on a particular value.

I have a first filter for the KO part:  
errorOwner.keyword is "SERVICE X"

This one works great and so I use a second filter for the OK part:  
errorOwner.keyword is not "SERVICE X"

The second filter work the same way as if they are no negation. So how can I do a negative filter on a bucket?

I just tried and it doesn't work too, filtering in bucket seems to not take negation pattern. It always return me the result of the same query without negation.

edit: in fact  
errorOwner.keyword: -"SERVICE X"  
give me a parsing error
