Hi! I wish to create a dataview query formy deadlines that will inform me some days in advance (7, 15 or 30 days by example). At the moment I have in my daily note a query that show me the today's deadlines using: WHERE deadline = this.file.name How can I get a reminder in advance? Thanks for any help

Will this help? Duration seems to work with operators.

I'm on mobile right now so I can't try it out but I'm curious if this will work in your case!

Thanks to a nice person in the Obsidian's forum, I've got the solution: https://forum.obsidian.md/t/reminder-for-deadlines-using-dataview/63707/3
