Date
relativeStartDatestringOptional
Optional: Select relative start date by which to filter pages. Any post published before this date will be excluded. This is calculated relative to the time the crawler is run (eg: '2 weeks' would include posts from 2 weeks ago to now). Format in format 'X days' or 'X weeks' or 'X months' or 'X years'. If no time period is passed in, it will be treated as a number of seconds.
Date selector
