How do you use Date Range Options in Advanced Reporting to retrieve results for a 7 day date range?
The Date Range Options in Advanced Reporting will not retrieve results for the "last 7 days" specifically. However, you are able to select a dynamic date range of the "First Day of Last/Current/Next week" to "Last day of Last/Current/Next week" to provide a 7 day range (Monday - Sunday).
For example:
Environment
