How to dynamically change the span parameter in bucket without using drop down options.

I have a search like this:

index=* source=*|....| bucket Time span=(1d/1h/5m)...| 
if I select last one month from time picker, span would auto change as 1d ..bucket Time span=1d in query
if I select last one day from time picker, span would auto change as 1h ..bucket Time span=1h in query.
if I select last one hour from time picker, span would auto change as 5m ..bucket Time span=5m in query.

A condition is that I can't use drop down for span....but timepicker for selecting for date and time.

can anyone help me on this query

@sbbadri - Order of the first two is reversed. You need to test 3600 before you test 86400.

@karthikeyan_k14, just FYI, if you use timechart first two should default span to what your are looking. Only for the third one it will be 1m by default not 5m.
