Dynamic Date Range Filter in Tableau

Do you want to build a customizable, dynamic date range filter in Tableau?

For example, imagine you want the filter to default to the last 14 days ending with today's date, but you'd like your user to be able to adjust the end date and number of days in that filter.

That combination of functionality is not available out-of-the-box in Tableau, but with some creativity, parameters and calculations, it's possible!

Check out this video to learn how you can create a totally customizable dynamic date range filter for your Tableau dashboards!

Great video! How would I create a dynamic reference line where the user selects their chosen date range, and reference lines populate for the period before performance. Ex. User chooses a date range of April 11 - April 17, and the reference line is for data from April 4 - April 10? Thanks!
