I have set up a watcher that generates a report based on a dashboard and sends it on email as a pdf attachement. In the PDF the x-axis labels are not visible, but they are visible on the dashboard. Why is that and how can I fix it? In the pdf report the labels are missing for x-axis (they are shown for y-axis): ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/1/0184c3bc05b7089d1b9710c3012e4901cb2bfec5.png) On the dashboard the pdf is generated from the labels are visible (however only for every other month, not for every month which is what I would prefer): ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/3/0/30a7bd6737318beff3f8726015d6aee3aeb77606.png) I also wonder how I can set up the watcher interval to be every month (preferably the first in every month)? ---

Hey @Karolinebryn which version of Kibana are you using where you're seeing this behavior? ---

@Brandon_Kobel Kibana 5.6.2 (in ElasticCloud) 🙂 Also; du you know how to set the watcher interval to be every month? ---

hey, you should use a cron expression for that instead of an interval, if it is so long running. The interval starts counting from zero when a master node switches or the cluster is restarted, and I am sure you want to get that report every first of the month or? 🙂 --Alex ---

@spinscale yes that is exactly what I want 🙂 Do you have any examples or resources on how to achieve this? Edit: I think maybe I figured it out. Is it something like this? ``` "trigger" : { "schedule" : { "monthly" : { "on" : 1, "at" : "noon" } } } ``` ---

Hey @Karolinebryn the x-axis labels were fixed in 5.6.3, could you try updating your Elasticsearch/Kibana to 5.6.3? ---

yes, that would work as well! Or this cron expression (the croneval tool is part of x-pack) ```auto ./bin/x-pack/croneval -c 12 '0 0 6 1 * ?' Valid! Now is [Mon, 4 Dec 2017 08:24:33] Here are the next 12 times this cron expression will trigger: 1. Mon, 1 Jan 2018 07:00:00 2. Thu, 1 Feb 2018 07:00:00 3. Thu, 1 Mar 2018 07:00:00 4. Sun, 1 Apr 2018 08:00:00 5. Tue, 1 May 2018 08:00:00 6. Fri, 1 Jun 2018 08:00:00 7. Sun, 1 Jul 2018 08:00:00 8. Wed, 1 Aug 2018 08:00:00 9. Sat, 1 Sep 2018 08:00:00 10. Mon, 1 Oct 2018 08:00:00 11. Thu, 1 Nov 2018 07:00:00 12. Sat, 1 Dec 2018 07:00:00 ``` --Alex ---
