Hi, I am new in Kibana .So I added a scripted field in one of the index pattern. I am pretty sure the code should work fine.

When I previewed the results, it works fine. However, when I tried to view it in Discover, it said "error loading data, [script\_exception] runtime error".

It looks like some of your documents don't have a `projectClockInTime`. Try to add the same guard to the top you added for `projectClockOutTime`.
