The Recent Time Window relative date filter lets you define a report's time period as "Today/Yesterday/X days ago at Time 1 to Today/Yesterday/Y days ago at Time 2." This is different from the Range filter, which requires specific dates. The key advantage is repeatability for scheduling, but it also works well for quickly scoping a window when investigating or troubleshooting a specific recent event.
This option is available on any report that uses the Call Date/Time dimension as a filter. Follow the steps below to configure it.
-
1
Select the Relative radio button on the Call Date/Time filter. -
2
Select Recent Time Window from the dropdown options that appear. -
3
Select the days relative to your current time and the specific hours that define the custom time range you want the report to return results for.
Most Brightmetrics reports include the Call Date/Time dimension as a standard parameter, but you can always add or remove dimensions as filters by clicking the 3 dots icon next to the dimension.
