Available in real-time and big data analytics.
The Filter by Time Range tool 
filters features using a specified time before, time after, or time range. Each feature's Start Time key field value is evaluated by the time range specified. Features that the specified time range evaluates as true are retained.
Examples
- A real-time analytic uses the Filter by Time Range tool to retain only the incoming records from a feed in which the feature Start Time key field value is After 2019-09-01 06:00.
- A big data analytic uses the Filter by Time Range tool to retain only records in which the feature Start Time key field value is Between 2019-09-01 15:00 to 2019-09-15 03:00.
Usage notes
The tool filters features based upon the defined Start Time key field value. The Start Time key field is specified when configuring a feed or a source. See Configure input data for information on how to specify a Start Time key field.
