# Date-based View Filter
{% hint style="success" %}
Check out the walk-through on how to filter a View based on Date values.
{% endhint %}
The users can apply Date based View Filter by selecting the Date Values from the Data Store.
The user can provide two kinds of conditions on the Date values: 1. Between, and 2. Relative
### **Between**
* Click the ***Filter*** icon on the ***Design*** page.
* The Filter panel opens, displaying all the available filter values.
* Select a dimension or measure containing ***Date*** values to filter the view.
* Choose the ***Between*** option from the drop-down menu.
* Provide the ***From*** and ***To*** dates.
* Click the ***Apply*** icon.
* The ***View Filter icon*** gets highlighted.
* The selected view gets filtered as per the applied filter conditions.
### **Relative**
* Click the ***Filter*** icon on the ***Design*** page.
* The ***Filter*** panel opens.
* Select a ***Date*** value as the ***filter condition***.
* Choose the ***Relative*** option from the drop-down.
* Insert a period by selecting the required values.
* The user gets the ***Last*** and ***This*** under the drop-down menu to select the ***past*** or ***present time zone***.
* There are ***4 categories of time pointers*** provided in another drop-down menu, which allow the user ***to select a value out of Years/ Months/Weeks/Days***. E.g., the below-given image displays the ***Last 5 years*** as the selected time condition.
* Click the ***Apply*** icon.
* The ***View Filter*** icon gets highlighted.
* The selected view gets filtered based on the applied conditions.
{% hint style="info" %} Please Note: The same set of steps can be used to apply the ***Global filter*** based on the date values.
