DAX query for given dates?

Hello,

 

At the moment we are using the following query to convey data to us based on YESTERDAY'S data:

 

= Webtrends.Tables("100886", Date.AddDays(Date.From(Date.From(DateTime.FixedLocalNow())), -1), Date.AddDays(Date.From(Date.From(DateTime.FixedLocalNow())), -1))

 

Now, if we change the -1 to -4, we will get data from 4 days before hand.

 

eg. Today = 16/08/2016

-4 = 12/08/2016

-5 = 11/08/2016

-3 = 13/08/2016

 

Unfortunately this only shows us data for that ONE date, what I want to do is to view data for a full 7 days prior to todays data. Is this possible, and if so how can we approach this?

 

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

 

Regards,

Atikur

    Hi AtikurRahman,

     

    According to your description, you want to view the data between today and seven days ago, right?

    If as I said, you could use Filtered Rows to achieve your requirement, below is the query:

     

      #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each [Date] >= Date.From(Date.AddDays(DateTime.FixedLocalNow(),-7)) and [Date] <= Date.From(DateTime.FixedLocalNow()))

     

     

    Before filter:

     

    After filter:

     

     

    If above is not help, please provide more detail info and feel free to let me know.
