Hi @kishorkumar

Lens has the relative time shift feature which helps you compute aggregations on a previous period of time providing a relative shift.

You can find the time shift for each metric dimension in Lens within the `Advanced` section of the configuration panel:

Pick any value from the selection list or just type any valid time shift:
