Configurable Quick Time Range Presets in Superset Time Range Picker

[imddevaraj]

The current Superset Time Range Picker provides a predefined set of relative time ranges. However, it does not include commonly used operational monitoring presets such as:

Last 5 minutes
Last 15 minutes
Last 30 minutes
Last 1 hour

These ranges are frequently used for real-time monitoring, observability, IoT telemetry, security analytics, and operational dashboards.

While Superset provides a Time Grain feature, it serves a different purpose (aggregation interval) and does not address the need for quickly selecting commonly used relative time ranges.

Proposed Enhancement

Enhance the superset-frontend Time Range Picker by introducing configurable Quick Time Range Presets.

Default Quick Ranges

Add the following presets to the Quick Range section:

Last 5 minutes
Last 15 minutes
Last 30 minutes
Last 1 hour

These should behave the same as the existing relative time selections, requiring only a single click.

Optional Configuration

Allow administrators to customize the available quick ranges via feature flags or application configuration, for example:

TIME_RANGE_QUICK_PRESETS = [
"Last 5 minutes",
"Last 15 minutes",
"Last 30 minutes",
"Last 1 hour",
"Last 6 hours",
"Last 24 hours",
]

This would allow organizations to tailor the picker to their own monitoring and analytics requirements without modifying the frontend.
