Your dashboard

Date ranges and comparisons

The range picker sits at the top of the dashboard and controls every number and every card on the page.

The date range picker open, showing the full preset list on the left and the two-month calendar for a custom range on the right. Light theme, desktop 1440px.

Presets

PresetWindow
NowThe last 30 minutes, auto-refreshing. See The live view.
TodayFrom the start of today until now
YesterdayThe whole of yesterday
Last 24 hoursA rolling 24 hours from now
Last 7 daysFrom the start of the day 6 days ago until now
Last 30 daysFrom the start of the day 29 days ago until now — the default
Last 12 monthsFrom the start of the month 11 months ago until now
Week to dateFrom Monday
Month to dateFrom the 1st
Year to dateFrom 1 January
All timeEverything you have, back to your plan's retention limit

Note the difference between Today and Last 24 hours: at 09:00, "Today" covers nine hours and "Last 24 hours" covers a full day including yesterday evening. The two rarely agree and neither is wrong.

Which timezone

Presets resolve in your browser's local timezone, so "Today" starts when your day starts, not when UTC's does. Your site also has its own timezone setting, which is what the API uses when you do not specify one.

Stepping back and forward

The arrows either side of the picker move the window by its own length. From "Last 7 days", the back arrow shows you the seven days before that. This is how you compare like with like — set a range, then step back one.

Custom ranges

Click the picker and choose two dates in the calendar. The range is inclusive of both.

Granularity

The chart's bucket size is chosen from the length of the range, and you can override it within the options that make sense:

Range lengthOptionsDefault
Up to 2 daysHourHour
Up to 10 daysHour, dayDay
Up to 45 daysDay, weekDay
Up to 120 daysDay, week, monthWeek
LongerDay, week, monthMonth

Now is minute-grained and fixed — there is no granularity choice on it.

Empty buckets are filled with zeros rather than skipped, so a quiet Sunday appears as a gap at zero rather than being silently omitted and making the chart lie about its own time axis.

Retention clamping

If you ask for a range that reaches further back than your plan's retention window, you get the data that exists rather than an error, and the dashboard tells you the range was clamped.

Retention follows your tier:

Pro5 years

Comparisons

There is no previous-period overlay on the chart yet. The back arrow is how you compare periods today: note the number, step back one window, compare.

Filters and the range

Drill-down filters and the range are independent. Clicking a country row filters the whole dashboard to that country and keeps your range; changing the range keeps your filters. The Filters button shows how many are active — see Breakdowns.
