I have an aggregation (filter + daterange) that is giving me an incorrect result (the count for a bucket is 2 when I expect 1) - but when I search using the same\* criteria, I get only the 1 result I expect. I am wondering what techniques there are for trying to debug the aggregation - to try figure out why I get a count of 2 instead of 1. - The criteria are almost the same - there is a process of turning one of the buckets of the date-range aggregation into a date range filter - but as it happens, this is not the part that is generating the incorrect results. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
