I would like to set a default value for date range filter field in charts, e.g by default have it set to the past 30 days This is the same way you can set a default in the filter fields for an assigned record or even status, for example. As the data in a chart grows, it can take a while to load up - having a default that we can set it to ( e.g., the last 30 days )makes it more relevant for the user and also hopefully improves the load-up speed. ---

@darragh do you know if there’s any way around this? It’s becoming more relevant as some of our reporting databases are growing larger ---

You could add some Javascript that adds it to the URL maybe - that’s all I would be able to suggest at this moment - I’ll see if the Engineering team have a better suggestion ---

Good news @fluxomate and @garyGHL ! We now support default min and max values for date fields in filters and for number fields when using the _between_ operator! This means you can do great things like “This month” or “Last 30 days” or “Last 3 months” ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/noloco/original/2X/2/2c197987a21be882bc91f141e6a58d57f9d48d6d.png) ---

That is magnificent Darragh đź‘Ť, really will help us out and hopefully cut down load times on some heavy tables and charts. Works really well. Thank you ---

Glad to hear it! We have badly needed these ourselves in a few places!
