Hi snigdhasaxena,,
You can start with fixing their formats into something you set.Then you should convert the date into epoch time to make calculations.After setting your format and convert it into epoch time you can substract these dates from today's date and finish the calculation.Lastly you should convert your result into day and finish the query.
1)First set the date format and convert into epoch time.
|eval dateformat=strftime(XYZ,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") //Turns you date into 2018-08-22 17:37:15
|eval epochtime=strptime(dateformat, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") //Convert to Epoch time.
2)Calculate the duration from your date to today.
| eval dayduration=round((now()-epochtime)/86400) // How many seconds passed till today and convert into the day equivalent.
1 Day= 60*60*24 seconds(86400 seconds).Round for getting rid of decimal.
So dayduration represent you how many days has passed till now.
