Date Range Picker
The Range Picker component enables users to select a range of dates. It can be used in booking platforms, report filtering, scheduling systems, etc.
Properties​
| Property | Description | Expected Value |
|---|---|---|
| Label | Text to display as the label for the field. | String (e.g., Select Check-In and Check-Out Dates). |
| Default start date | Set the start date to be selected by default in the component. | Date in correct format (e.g., 01/04/2024). |
| Default end date | Set the end date to be selected by default in the component. | Date in correct format (e.g., 10/04/2024). |
| Format | Defines the date format. Default date format is DD/MM/YYYY. | Date format in ISO 8601 defined formats (e.g., MM/DD/YYYY). |
caution
Click the fx button next to Format to enter a custom format string. ToolJet uses Moment.js to parse and format dates, so the format string must use Moment.js tokens, and these tokens are case-sensitive — for example, D is the day of the month (1–31), while lowercase d is the day of the week (0–6, Sunday to Saturday). Also note that YYYY gives a 4-digit year, but lowercase yyyy isn't a valid Moment.js token and gets rendered as literal text. Use a format like MMM D, YYYY (e.g., Jan 5, 2024), not MMM d, yyyy.
Events​
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| On select | Triggers whenever a start date or end date is selected. |
| On focus | Triggers whenever the user clicks inside the input field. |
| On blur | Triggers whenever the user clicks outside the input field. |
