$dateSubtract not recognized for Mongo Database

Hi, I'm trying an aggregation function called $dateSubtract to get the previous months value. But the query doesn't recognize the function.

issue%201

This is my query:

{
    "$addFields": {
        "previous_month": {
            "$dateSubtract": {
                "startDate": "$startTime",
                "unit": "month",
                "amount": 1,
                "timezone": "Asia/Riyadh"
                
            }
        }
    }
},
{
    "$project": {
        "_id": 0,
        "PM": "$previous_month"
    }
}

Here are the diagnostics

Hi @shahmirali
You should upgrade immediately to latest release: https://github.com/metabase/metabase/releases/latest
Which version of Mongo and can you run this query directly on Mongo?

Hi @flamber
I'm using version 4.2.3. And yes it runs directly on Mongo (see below.
By the way its the same case with $dateDiff function as well


@shahmirali $dateSubtract is only available in Mongo 5.0:
