pre-defined period on a controller in analytics

Question

I Have a calendar controller in my dashboard but i'm trying to create a period of time instead to use the calendar. For example, it's really useful if i can select the option Last Week instead of insert the 2 dates in the calendar

I Searched for documentation or even a post here in the community about that but i didn't find anything that could help me

Hi @Bruno Brendel Gomes

If I understood your question correctly, you are looking for a way to set Calendar control to default to last 1 week whenever a user views the dashboard. Is that correct? If so, then you can Edit the control and set Default start and Default end values to the ones shown in the screenshot below.

You can use days, months and years options as well.

However, if you want to see the last week option on the Calendar control itself when you open the Calendar, then that feature is not supported.

For more information on how to setup Calendar control, you are read the documentation here: https://support.atlassian.com/analytics/docs/set-up-a-calendar-control/

Cheers,

Inder

Welcome to the community, @Bruno Brendel Gomes  👋

Like you, I'm not finding anything that indicates this kind of expression of time is supported (yet).

You might want to add your voice to this enhancement request or submit one of your own.

Hopefully, if someone in the community knows a clever way to do this some other way, they'll speak up.

Best,
