Hi Aaron, thanks for your reply.  
I'm alredy using the time filter but, as I said in the question, I don't need the last 30 days, I need the current month. For example I need from the first of January to now. The solution you linked doesn't work in Kibana 7.5.1. The filter show the exact string "now/M-1" instead of a calculated date.
