Hello!

I have an use case where events have multiple timestamps.

Would it be possible to create an index pattern with a Time Filter on those multiple timestamp fields?

I would prefer to it through Kibana rather than transforming the events and sending duplicates.

Thanks in advance for your help

Best regards,

Welcome to our community! 😃  
You need a single primary time field defined in the pattern, but you can still have multiple fields in each document and then do search/sort/aggs on them like you would the primary one.
