Examples

/**

 */
function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook) {
  // Get the "Date Recorded" field to filter. 
  // The data in this field must be dates in order for the filter to work.
  const pivot = workbook.getPivotTables()[0];
  const rowHierarchy = pivot.getRowHierarchy("Date Recorded");
  const rowField = rowHierarchy.getFields()[0];

  // Create the filter's date boundaries.
  let earliestDate: ExcelScript.FilterDatetime = {
    date: "2022-06-20",
    specificity: ExcelScript.FilterDatetimeSpecificity.day
  };
  let latestDate: ExcelScript.FilterDatetime = {
    date: "2022-07-10",
    specificity: ExcelScript.FilterDatetimeSpecificity.day
  };

  // Apply the date filter.
  rowField.applyFilter({
    dateFilter: {
      condition: ExcelScript.DateFilterCondition.between,
      lowerBound: earliestDate,
      upperBound: latestDate
    }
  });
}
