Date Ranges
LightLead supports two ways to define a report period: preset ranges and custom dates.
Preset ranges
These are dynamic periods that are automatically recalculated relative to the current date.
| Preset | Description | Boundaries |
|---|---|---|
today | Today | 00:00 – the current moment |
yesterday | Yesterday | 00:00 – 23:59 of the previous day |
last_3_days | Last 3 days | 3 days ago 00:00 – today |
last_7_days | Last 7 days | 7 days ago 00:00 – today |
last_14_days | Last 14 days | 14 days ago 00:00 – today |
last_30_days | Last 30 days | 30 days ago 00:00 – today |
last_90_days | Last 90 days | 90 days ago 00:00 – today |
this_week | This week | Mon 00:00 – the current moment |
last_week | Last week | Mon 00:00 – Sun 23:59 |
this_month | This month | The 1st 00:00 – the current moment |
last_month | Last month | The 1st 00:00 – the last day 23:59 |
this_quarter | This quarter | Start of quarter – the current moment |
last_quarter | Last quarter | Start of quarter – end of quarter 23:59 |
this_year | This year | January 1 00:00 – the current moment |
last_year | Last year | January 1 00:00 – December 31 23:59 |
all_time | All time | From the earliest available date – today |
Custom range
Defined explicitly with start and end dates:
json
{
"start": "2026-01-01",
"end": "2026-01-31"
}Rules
- Date format:
YYYY-MM-DD(ISO 8601) startis included in the range (00:00:00)endis included in the range (23:59:59)startcan't be later thanend- The maximum range length depends on the plan (see Limits)
- The earliest available date depends on the source — not all sources store data for every period
Comparison with the previous period
When using comparison with the previous period, the system automatically picks an equivalent-length period:
last_7_days→ the previous 7 days (8–14 days ago)this_month→ the previous month- A custom 10-day range → the previous 10 days
Data update date
It's important to distinguish between:
- Event date — when the click/impression/conversion happened (from the source's API)
- Load date — when the data landed in LightLead
By default, all reports are built by event date.
Time zones
Day boundaries are determined by the time zone of the source account. More details in Time Zones.
