Early access 1.6.0

Get the number of seconds between the first and last measurements in a gauge aggregate

Arguments

Name	Type	Default	Required	Description
summary	GaugeSummary	-	✔	A gauge aggregate created using gauge_agg

Returns

DOUBLE PRECISION: The difference, in seconds, between the first and last times

Samples

Get the time difference between the first and last gauge readings for each 15-minute interval. Note this difference isn’t necessarily equal to 15 minutes * 60 seconds / minute, because the first and last readings might not fall exactly on the interval boundaries.
