Clarity about date range selection when defining action, using data table

Open corywatilo opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

When defining an action, it appears that the query only looks back 24 hours. But there's a date picker that says No date range override which makes me think it will show > 24 hours.

(So, when trying to define an action, only seeing a handful of event when I'm expecting to see thousands makes me think my DOM selectors are wrong, which it turns out they weren't.)

Easy fix would be to explicitly say it's only looking at a short window, or even better: select the Last 24 hour option in the time picker.

Also when clicking the Open as new insight button, it opens the same query in the data table view.

At this point it should definitely show the date range, as it just looks like a bug that it's only loading a sliver of data with no date range set.
