The June 2016 update to ArcGIS Online now allows for filters to be created using the current date.  While this is useful, it only allows users to query by events in the past, using options like "In the last x days" or "not in the last x days".

What would be really useful is the same functionality for future events - something similar, like "in the next x days" or "not in the next x days"

We use ArcGIS Online to allow users to view information about construction sites, and it would be nice for them to be able to see construction projects that will begin in the next few days for planning purposes.

Have had multiple requests for this functionality.

I seriously can't believe this is not yet implemented. Especially when there is similar functionality within ArcGIS enterprise (https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/10.6/use/date-based-filter-conditions.htm)... As a company that shares forward looking forecast data, this limitation makes it pretty much useless...

Filter by current date is a basic function we use everyday.
