Scheduled search for previous month results

I have one query which needs to be run first of every month for the timerange of last month, get the results and email.

By far, I am only scheduling it to run every day for last 30 days and just get the results on 1st on the month, ignoring rest. 30 days is the best I am able to get with the scheduled search "Run frequency" and "Time Range".

Is there any better way that I can get previous month results instead of doing it manually every month and email them?

Thanks
Krishna

  Check out this post: https://support.sumologic.com/hc/communities/public/questions/203914018-Weekly-monthly-reports-scheduled-search-option

  Near the end, Dean makes a recommendation on how to get reports to run weekly (ie. every Thursday). While not exactly what you are looking for, you may be able to use this method to achieve what you are looking for.

  Weekly and monthly are not the same thing.

  Suggestion: Increasing the 30-day limit to a 32-day limit will solve it elegantly, without being a too much of a burden on your servers.

  I was actually looking for a monthly report which can consider the days of previous month by itself. It should consider February (leap year), March or May automatically or through some query mechanism.

  Met the sales guys 2 months back and they said it might be in works as they got multiple such requests from various people. Till then, keep a reminder every first of the month and run the query :)

   

  Thanks
