Hi,  
I have a question about changing time format in range query when visualizing data.

I have a date field 'time local' and its format is "dd/MMM/YYYY:HH:mm:ss Z"  
ex.  
"time\_local": "15/Nov/2019:16:49:53 +0900",

The problem is that  
kibana always use "strict\_date\_optional\_time" time format in range query to search data and  
with this time format my data is not appeared in visualization.

My es query with correct date format in range , elasticsearch gave a right answer.

Is it possible to change time format in range query in Kibana visualization request?

Thank you 🙂

I think that you don't need to change the format in range query.

If you change the mapping setting in time\_local from "dd/MMM/YYYY:HH:mm:ss Z" to "dd/MMM/yyyy:HH:mm:ss Z", you can find your expected result.

Here is my configurations and test results.

I hope this will help.
