@SathyaJayabal, Past challenges should be searched view filter with date rage

[LieutenantRoger]

@SathyaJayabal Correct, the past challenges bucket is removed, please close this ticket. @Oanh-and-only-Oanh

[Oanh-and-only-Oanh]

@SathyaJayabal please verify that Past challenges should be searched view filter with date rage before closing. I was not able to do so... @LieutenantRoger

[SathyaJayabal]

@LieutenantRoger, but we are not able to search past challenges using keyword search nor the date filter

[LieutenantRoger]

@SathyaJayabal

Please change the ticket description about what the problem, instead of posting a snapshot in the conversation.

The main description apparently a false one.

PR is here: #4993

@LieutenantRoger I'm still seeing the issue.
http://local.topcoder.com/challenges?startDateStart=2018-07-01T15:00:00.000Z&endDateEnd=2018-10-31T15:00:00.000Z

[luizrrodrigues]

@SathyaJayabal @LieutenantRoger

This looks like a issue with API, if check same range Prod also will return nothing:
https://www.topcoder.com/challenges?filter[startDate]=2018-07-01T15%3A00%3A00.000Z&filter[endDate]=2018-10-31T15%3A00%3A00.000Z&bucket=past

---

@LieutenantRoger I see the changes and is a valid fix, because was missing & between params. So I'll merge the code.

---

@LieutenantRoger But found a new issue, if refresh the page or try access directly (https://test-community-app.topcoder-dev.com/challenges?startDateStart=2020-08-01T15:00:00.000Z&endDateEnd=2020-08-31T15:00:00.000Z) filter not applied.

@SathyaJayabal Can you create a new issue to this one or maybe we can track here.

[SathyaJayabal]

@luizrrodrigues , I think #4981 will take care of the new issue. Please confirm.

[luizrrodrigues]

@SathyaJayabal Oh, yep.

[luizrrodrigues]

@SathyaJayabal @LieutenantRoger Now able to reproduce the issue:

Prod: https://www.topcoder.com/challenges?filter[startDate]=2018-07-01T15%3A00%3A00.000Z&filter[endDate]=2018-12-31T14%3A00%3A00.000Z&bucket=past

Local:
http://local.topcoder.com/challenges?startDateStart=2018-07-01T15:00:00.000Z&endDateEnd=2018-12-31T14:00:00.000Z

Issue: FE always use status=Active in API call:
https://api.topcoder.com/v5/challenges/?startDateStart=2018-07-01T15%3A00%3A00.000Z&endDateEnd=2018-12-31T14%3A00%3A00.000Z&status=Active&isLightweight=true&perPage=1&tracks[]=Dev&tracks[]=Des&tracks[]=DS&tracks[]=QA

[SathyaJayabal]

@sushilshinde @luizrrodrigues , as discussed, we are waiting on clarification on how to implement this and where to display the past challenges

[ThomasKranitsas]

You can use the endDateEnd query parameter to fetch past challenges and set it to the current date. Additionally, you can also use status=Completed to only fetch the completed past challenges.

Example API call: http://api.topcoder.com/v5/challenges?endDateEnd=2020-09-24T00:00:00Z

[luizrrodrigues]

@LieutenantRoger Any status in this one?

Please check: #4972 (comment)

[LieutenantRoger]

Hi @luizrrodrigues saw a challenge is launched for this issue. Yes, I used status=Active by default which causes this.

[SathyaJayabal]

@luizrrodrigues @sushilshinde @Oanh-and-only-Oanh , This looks good.
