Can you help me with a query that uses the latest function with a timechart command?

[james_n]

HI,

I have a query index=something | timechart latest(fieldA) as datavalues by dataNames.

when i select the time duration Today or Yesterday up to last 30days , it's working fine. If I select the last 3 months, it's displaying the wrong results.

Can you please help me on this?

Hey,

How do you select "last 3 months"? Do you use any time snapping:

you can force the time using earliest and latest as filter:
index=something earliest=-3mon latest=now

Which is different to:
index=something earliest=-3mon@m latest=@m

Cheerz,
Björn

@skoelpin yes same data same timestamp from last one year onwards

Can you post a screenshot of what you see and explain what you're looking to get?

Are you referring to different time spans as you extend the time period?

[skoelpin]

Have you confirmed your timestamp is correct from 3 months ago?

timechart has auto spaning depends on the time picker
