Specifically, the data I am analyzing is the result of simulations, and time is stored as a numeric value starting from zero, not in a date-time format. Furthermore, the time settings are only as granular as a hour, while my data has events happening at a sub-minute scale.\r\n\r\n\r\n### Superset version\r\n0.28.1\r\n\r\n### Expected results\r\nTime should accept other formats. In my data, time is expressed in minutes as a float starting from zero. Furthermore, granularity should allow to go all the way down to milliseconds (although for me seconds would be enough)\r\n\r\n### Actual results\r\nMy time data is not parsed correctly since it is not in any date-time format. Of course, I can transform my data and work around the limitation, and I will. This is more a feature request.\r\n\r\nThanks again!"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/apache/incubator-superset/issues/comments/433758188","html_url":"https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/6182#issuecomment-433758188","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/apache/incubator-superset/issues/6182","id":433758188,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQzMzc1ODE4OA==","user":{"login":"marcotama","id":1052500,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjEwNTI1MDA=","avatar_url":"https://avatars2.githubusercontent.com/u/1052500?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama","html_url":"https://github.com/marcotama","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/marcotama/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-10-29T00:44:01Z","updated_at":"2018-10-29T00:44:01Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"Hi @williaster, thanks for the reply.\r\n\r\nI read your first sentences to mean that I can bypass Superset and use the EventFlow vis itself; is this correct? How would I go about it? Sorry if this is a silly question, I am quite new to Superset.\r\n\r\nAbout the granularity, your guess is correct: in the web UI, there is a setting for the granularity, and it only goes down to minutes. Unfortunately, the Superset UI freezes on my entire dataset, and has serious problems even on a slice (small enough that it should not be a size issue). I will open a ticket about this if I manage to write a minimal example that does not involve my data. This was to say that I do not know whether the vis itself would later allow me to change the granularity."}}
