Anonymous: If we add a custom attribute to the StatsigUser object with a date format, will we be able to filter with it using the console metrics drilldown features?

Statbot: Hello! Yes, you can set custom attributes on the StatsigUser object, and these attributes can be used to filter data in the console. However, the documentation does not explicitly mention support for date formats as custom attributes. Generally, you can filter by user properties in the metrics drilldown features, which allows you to narrow down your exploration to find interesting insights [source]. If you’re looking to filter by a date attribute, ensure that it’s formatted in a way that the system can recognize and filter by. If you encounter any issues or have specific requirements for date formats, it would be best to test the functionality within the console to see if it meets your needs.

Cooper Reid (Statsig): Yeah you can filter on any user attribute within “Explore” tab under Pulse, but I don’t believe we have date comparison operators — you’ll be able to match on string equals/contains/doesn’t equal.

Cooper Reid (Statsig): Worth mentioning that Pulse results does have a built-in Time-window filter if you click on “settings”

Anonymous: Yah, but we need to filter on a user_created attribute that’s set in the console

Anonymous: probably going to go for epoch format so we can do numeric comparisons
