Display Date Calendar filter by specific date

[Shraddha]

Hello,

Atlassian Analytics has the Calendar control which gives ability to pick date between ranges. Is there a way to restrict the range to start from a specific date?

Currently it goes back to 2014.

Hi Shradda! Currently, you won't be able to restrict users from selecting a date in 2014 in your Calendar control. Though you can edit the default start and end dates in your Calendar to be the default dates filtering your charts. 

You can either use a fixed date (2024-03-04) or a relative date using one of our relative date variables. Once you've edited your default start and end dates, all charts connected to the Calendar will filter by the default date range until a different date range is manually selected in the control. 

I hope that helps!

Thanks for the response @Jessie Turpin 

Its there any other customized calendar filter that can be created to avoid going long back dates/years?

You're welcome, Shraddha! Here is a link to our documentation on the different control types available. The Date slider control is similar to the Calendar control, but one difference is you can select a specific column to be used to create the control. One caveat with using the Date slider control is that the data will still go as far back as the first data in your instance. For example, if you created the first ticket in your site in March 2024, the Date slider would start from March 2024. I hope that helps!
