-# $dateSubtract
-
-New from version 5.0
-
-The `$dateSubtract` aggregation operator in Amazon DocumentDB allows you to subtract a specified duration from a date value.
-
-**Parameters**
-
-  * `date`: A date expression that resolves to a date or timestamp.
-
-  * `subtrahend`: A duration expression that specifies the amount of time to subtract from the `date` expression.
-
-  * `unit`: A string that specifies the time unit for the `subtrahend` expression. Supported units are "year", "quarter", "month", "week", "day", "hour", "minute", "second", and "millisecond".

-## Example (MongoDB Shell)
-
-The following example demonstrates how to use the `$dateSubtract` operator to calculate the date one year ago from the current date.
-
-**Create sample documents**
-    
-    
-    db.events.insertOne({
-      eventName: "Player joined",
-      eventTime: ISODate("2023-04-01T12:00:00Z")
-    });
-
-**Query example**
-    
-    
-    db.events.aggregate([
-      {
-        $project: {
-          eventName: 1,
-          oneYearAgo: {
-            $dateSubtract: {
-              startDate: "$eventTime",
-              amount: 1,
-              unit: "year"
-            }
-          }
-        }
-      }
-    ])
-
-**Output**
-    
-    
-    {
-      "_id" : ObjectId("64567890abcdef012345678"),
-      "eventName" : "Player joined",
-      "oneYearAgo" : ISODate("2022-04-01T12:00:00Z")
-    }
