Hello,
I'm using a date slicer, and I've noticed that when I select a specific date (rather than all available dates), the slicer gets locked to that selection and doesn't update dynamically.
Is there a way to make the slicer default to a dynamic range, such as the last 30 days?
Ideally, I'd like users to be able to expand the date range if they want, but when the dashboard first loads, it should automatically show only the last 30 days.
Is it possible?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hey BigLo
Here is how you set it to the last 30 days
I hope this help. If this solve your problem please accept this as a solution.
It works.
However, our users typically use a date picker; therefore, I would have preferred a date filter with dynamic selection.
I will use relative dates (with a StartDate/EndDate display) or a custom visualization.
Thank you for your answers

Hi,
I'd suggest using 'Relative date' if your dynamic range is relative to today. Using a Relative Date slicer always auto-updates in Service.
