Hey @nitingoyal

The "Greater Than" filter type can only check for the numerical values only it doesn't check for the greater or less than the date in the Filter action step.

So, to check for the data whether it is greater or less than you need to split its days months and year in three separate filters with AND condition.

You can also refer to the following marked video tutorial on how you can set the Filter action step for date type.

Then why does it was working till last week ??

Then why does it was working till last week ??

Because if you pick the date it will pick the first date only to check the condition whereas it only takes the numbers.
