Exporting json from toggl track - date range defaults to long ago

Which product is this about?

Toggl Track

Topic content

Hi,
I export data weekly from toggl track in Json format. When I use the export function the start date of the date range defaults to long ago (I believe the installation date). Can this be set to the same week or at least in the same month? It is not a big problem yet because it is only 5 months ago, but when this will be longer it will start to get annoying.

Can I fix this myself or is this by design?

Kind regards,
Dennis

The default start date behaviour you’re describing — where the export range defaults back to your earliest data — is by design in Toggl Track, and there is no setting to change what the date range defaults to when you open the export dialog.

The workaround is simply to manually adjust the start date each time before exporting. Since you’re doing this weekly, it may help to make a habit of setting a “This week” or custom date range before triggering the export. The date range is editable before you confirm the export, so you can always narrow it down before the file is generated.

If the ability to save a default date range for exports is something you’d find useful, that’s a good idea and I’ll pass it along to the product team.
