Specify time range and "Compare to" benchmark
All dashboards have the following required filters:
-
Time range: You can select a real-time time range within the Time range: Today option and choose a trailing window of time. For additional windows, select Custom. You can select historical time ranges by altering your Time range to Day, Week, or Month.
-
Compare to benchmark time range: You can customize a comparison time period to benchmark your Time range selection against, such as an exact week over week comparison called Compare to: Prior week same day, time range, and time. This benchmark time range powers the benchmarking in all of the widgets in the dashboard. Your benchmark time range must be a date in the past compared to your time range.
Each dashboard has additional filters specific to that feature. For example, the following image of the Conversational analytics dashboard shows the available filters for that widget. Contact category is specific to Contact Lens.
