Request for Custom Relative Time Range Feature in Phoenix Dashboard Views

Hey Arize team! Something that would meaningfully improve my experience with phoenix is the ability to define a custom relative time range for my view. Right now, I can choose last 15 minutes, last hour, last 12 hours, last day, etc If those don’t work, my only option is to choose a specific date time range. I would love to be able to define last N minutes/hours/days (maybe) Is this by chance something the team has considered?

Yes, the Phoenix team has considered and implemented finer-grained "last N" time range options. Recent updates allow users to restrict the time range in the UI to custom intervals, such as last N minutes, hours, or days, addressing the need for more flexible relative time selection beyond the fixed presets like "last hour" or "last day" (<https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix/pull/4632|see PR feat: finer grain last N time range>). This enhancement was driven by user feedback for handling large data volumes and is now available in the UI. Additionally, there are ongoing and planned improvements to make custom time range selection more user-friendly, including preset options and better date/time pickers (<https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix/issues/8424|see enhancement requests>, <https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix/issues/7779|calendar picker>). Would you like more detail on how to use these features or on the roadmap for further improvements?
