# Time ranges

## Quick Start API

The Quick Start API allows you to search from the current moment back as far as 168 hours (7 days).

## Historical API

The Historical API allows you to specify a `from` and `to` time range to refine your query. This can be for any dates from 2018 onwards.

The maximum range between the `from` and `to` dates in your query should not exceed 7 days. This will give you the best performance. Limiting your search time range to small increments will help you to handle each endpoint's [Result size limits](https://developer.newswhip.com/docs/result-size-limits) elegantly.
