Time Range Selection Filter
The Time Range selection filter appears
at the top of the dashboards where you want to filter information by time
range.
The time is localized, so you can filter based on the local time
for your region. Data is fetched every minute, but datapoints shown in most
histograms vary according to the Time Range
selected.
For your convenience, Prisma Access lets you pick the Time
Range from a few predefined ranges or configure your own
date and time range:
- Last 15 min1 datapoint for every 3 minutes for a total of 5 datapoints.
- Last 1 Hour1 datapoint for every 3 minutes for a total of 20 datapoints.
- Last 3 Hours1 datapoint for every 3 minutes for a total of 60 datapoints.
- Last 24 Hours1 datapoint for every 5 minutes for a total of 288 datapoints.
- Last 7 Days1 datapoint for every 30 minutes for a total of 336 datapoints.
- Last 30 Days1 datapoint for every 3 hours for a total of 180 datapoints.

Apply the start time, then set the end time by selecting an end date in the calendar and a time under End.Once you set a custom time range, it gets saved and applied across all widgets within Insights that use the time range filter to display data instead of real-time data.You can pick from prepopulated Time Range selections for custom time intervals:
