Why is the date range restricted at 390 days?

Thank you @thepaul for such a detailed reply.

I read the thread where it was mentioned and I quote “unrestricted datepicker will be too expensive of a query”. I assume its taxing on the database (resources) to produce results for an unrestricted data range for generating report.

If its still possible to generate a report then I would like to recommend giving customer that ability to download a report with unrestricted custom range but for a “fee”. Past month, year and less than 390 will still be free but there could be clients that want a custom report that doesn’t fit in past month, year or less than 390 days and are willing to pay a fee for it.

It could be done by accepting a request from customer and notifying the fee details upfront. Satellite could then generate that report and email it to client when ready.

This could be seen on websites that give you historical “activity data” like Coinbase. Although they do it for free, the fee is just an idea to generate more revenue. Storj could still offer it for free but report will be generated and emailed when ready as there are chances of failure.
