Hi Sushil,

The API does not have extensive support for daily data yet. There are no
relative periods for days, so you have to list them each explicitly, using
the yyyyMMdd format:
http://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch25s03.html

Unfortunately, I think this means you cannot get daily data for a whole
year in one query, because the URL would be more than 9*365 (over 3000)
characters long. So you would probably have to split it.

I agree that for daily data (what is the use case?), start and end date
would be much more convenient. But you could build that logic in the
javascript that constructs the query URL.

Knut
