Hello, I want to create a bar chart with three date ranges. 0h - 8h 8h - 16h 16h - 24h The range should bound to the beginning date of the timefilter. But the parameter 'now' calculates only the current date as I can see. For my purpose I add a second field for my mapping that stores only the time withe the timeformat HH:mm:ss.SSS. But Kibana does not accept the ranges . ![KibanaDateRange](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/6/06ac7ed2a08242a5859dd45e9246e860c5711bf7.png) ---

@suikast42 you can extract the hour of the day into a Float/Integer and use that Field with the Range aggregation. The Date Range aggregation only works with full DateTimes, not with only hours of the day. ---
