I've been pounding my head against this issue for a while now. You're an absolute legend, thank you for the video!

Thanks a lot for this video.. resolved one issue with help of this...please keep posting this kind of video for real time issues.

Any idea if this process would be the reason why the Time Range Picker presets (ex: Last 7 days, last week, etc) would show different results than specifying a date range? That's the only issue I have after doing the steps from this video series.

Ok, I need to test it great job again. Thanks!!

Can't we do the same thing using timeToken...why do we need job.earliestTime...we can convert epoch value of timeToken and i understand the latest value is null so we can set the condition on latest value of timetoken while doing all time and then set the date field condition around it. I am just trying to undertand the need of job.earliestTime where same thing can be done using timeToken..please help me clarifying this doubt

Hi, I have a query on the above logic. You have declared a variable as "$job.earliestTime$". Where is the "job" token declared in the xml?

Thanks for the video, it helped me a lot... But I see that milliseconds are not being converted to epoch format. any suggestions on how to convert milliseconds to epoch format.?

Is it possible to schedule a dashboard and send mail on specific day/time.?
