Matt Gilman commented on NIFI-761:
----------------------------------
How about we offer two options:
- Relative range (ie last 24 hours, last 3 days, etc) like we enter duration
elsewhere in the application
- Specific start and end dates such that
-- end time = current server time
-- start time = end time - 24 hours
> Have provenance event search times be based off "now"

> Key: NIFI-761
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-761
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: Core UI
> Reporter: Aldrin Piri
> Priority: Trivial
>
> Currently the event search within provenance defaults to an end time
> seemingly for the current user time and not the current system time.
> Consider "now" where I am creating this entry at 21:29 EDT, July 11th.
> My NiFi instance is set to UTC time and rightly shows a time +4 hours of
> 01:29 UTC, but this is July 12th. By default I am, in this section of the
> clock, defaulting to a time less than what is available for events.
> The other side to this is that when I am much earlier than 23:59 UTC, I am
> defaulting to a time period much later than where I am currently at with no
> possible chance of events. "Now" makes a lot more sense for an end time.
> The 24 hour period seems like a reasonable default, however I think it might
> benefit the user to have it end at "now" when I bring up the provenance event
> search and go back 24 hours from there.
