  • u - unique

There are 4 types of documents available:

  1. Zero document, which id is formed from {appID}_{year}:0 And it contains stats breakdown by months and weeks for the specified year
  2. Month document, which id is formed from {appID}_{year}:{month} And it contains stats breakdown by days of the month
  3. Splitted zero document which id is formed from {appID}{year}:0{shardname}
  4. Splitted month document which id is formed from {appID}{year}:{month}{shardname}

Here is the list of possible fields
