Power Query Dynamic Date

Hi all,

 

I'm requesting some data using the web connector. Part of the URL I am connecting to has a date range, see below:

 

query=created:%20[2018-01-30T00:00:00%20TO%202018-01-30T23:59:59]

 

The date has to be expressed in this way. Is there a way I can make this date range dynamic so it always references yesterday?

 

 

I've tried using some of the datetime functions but can't get it to work.

 

Thanks

 

Mike

Hi

 

It doesn't really explain how to dynamically input the date in the correct format in the power query.
