How do we change the default search period to one hour?

We would like to change the default search period to an hour. How can we do it in 7.3?

Hi @danielbb, from the CLI, go to Settings > Server settings > General settings > Search preferences. There's a drop down there to change the default time range.

The documentation to do this via web, CLI or conf file is here:

Server settings > Search preferences in 7.3

Is there a way for the users to set their own defaults?
