Nested Date fields not showing up in date histogram/date range

[sana_es (sana)]

I am working with a Nested field with date data type for as starting and ending duration.
I would like to use use those fields for date histograms in data table and also to create drop down with control. I am not able to see these date fields as date in the data table or control.
Following is my data format

          "stockperiod" : {
            "type": "nested",
            "properties" : {
              "dateperiod" : {
                "type": "nested",
                "properties" : {
                  "enddate" : {
                    "type" : "date"
                  },
                  "startdate" : {
                    "type" : "date"
                  }
                }
              },
              "itemstatus" : {
                "type" : "keyword",
                "ignore_above" : 256,
                "norms": "false"
              }
            }

Hi @sana_es, welcome to the discussion boards!

Support for nested fields in Kibana is an ongoing process. We made progress on this for 7.6.0, but support for data tables and controls is still not here yet. You can follow this issue to track our progress: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/1084#issuecomment-585178079
