DAX to calculate the 7 days and last 14 days activity.

Hi, 

I can do this easily using the the filter, but I really want to do it using DAX.

I've tried multiple "lastdate" variations but i'm not sure the syntext to move it back 7 or 14 days. 

 

I have a the below table and i simply want a DAX that counts the number of devices that last log on in the past 7 days. i'll replacate that formular to then account for the last 14 days. 

 

Device Name

Last Logon DateConfidence Level 
AAAJan 29Medium
BBBJan 3High 
CCApril 21Medium

Hi, wondering if i can piggyback on my ask 🙂

 

Instead of the last 7 days... what if i now wanted a range say between 7 and 14 days? I'm not sure what i do with the TODAY () function so that is starts at 7 days?
