Relative time-ranges
The Query API supports the same language for relative days as the one used in the Data Search section.
Let's suppose the current time (which we refer to as "now()") is Sunday, 05 February 2017, 13:37:05. The table below shows the resulting time when different expressions are applied.
Time expression | Description | Resulting time |
|---|---|---|
now() - 60m | 60 minutes ago | Sunday, 05 February 2017, 12:37:05 |
now() @ 1h | Now (rounded to the beginning of the hour) | Sunday, 05 February 2017, 13:00:00 |
now() - 24h | 24 hours ago | Saturday, 04 February 2017, 13:37:05 |
(now() - 1d) @ 1d | Yesterday (rounded to the beginning of the day) | Saturday, 04 February 2017, 00:00:00 |
(now() - 2d) @ 1d | 2 days ago (rounded to the beginning of the day) | Friday, 03 February 2017, 00:00:00 |
(now() - 2d) @ 1m | 2 days ago (rounded to the beginning of the minute) | Friday, 03 February 2017, 13:37:00 |
((now() - 2d) @ 1d) - 2h | 2 days ago (rounded to the beginning of the day minus 2 hours) | Thursday, 02 February 2017, 22:00:00 |
now() @ 1w | Locale week | Sunday, 05 February 2017, 00:00:00 |
now() @ 1W | ISO week | Monday, 30 January 2017, 00:00:00 |
now() ^ 6d | Replace the day with 6 | Monday, 06 February 2017, 13:37:05 |
