How to filter data

There are two places in GrimoireLab where we can change and add filters.

• Time Picker
• Normal Filters

Time Picker

Most dashboards are based on item creation date. So you can filter according to a time frame. Time Picker allows you to visualize data according to a particular time frame.

You can also set a custom time picker if needed. Go to the section Time picker quick ranges in Management -> Advances Settings and add your quickRanges to the list. An example of quickRange is provided below. from and to contain date values, display is the title thay will be displayed in kibiter and section defines the column where the quickRange will be added.

Note: You need to be logged in to save your custom time picker. Check the private and public access section to understand about permissions in GrimoireLab dashboards.
