Hello,

i would like to create a timelion sheet that queries only logfiles that have the value x in a certain field. Due to the fact, that q= does not support numbers, it does not work. Here is what i tried:

.es(index=dummy-\*, timefield=DashboardTimestamp, q=RQ\_NumberofAdults:[0 to 3])

Is there any Workaround here? Many thanks for any help!

Best

Julia

hi @Julia103,

you should be able to use the regular Lucene query-syntax there

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-query-string-query.html#\_ranges](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-query-string-query.html#_ranges)

So that looks right (?)
