Grafana: Time Ranges

Relative Time Ranges

Time Range during specific work hours

Let’s say you have an important business process metric you want to track every day for the current day so far, but the data starts coming in during normal business hours starting at 8am. Using the period selector now/d would waste lots of screen space with non-existent data from midnight to 8am. Setting the start time to now/d+8 instead will optimize the display by limiting the view to the business hours you are interested in.

Start time = now/d+8h
End time = now
