WeightCategoryDateRef

References a Date/Time period category by an inclusive-start, exclusive-end date range ([dateFrom, dateTo)). This is the canonical way to reference a date period; it is unaffected by data refreshes, filtering, or aggregation changes. Enumerate the available period buckets via question.variables[0].periods — each PeriodInfo exposes start and end to use as dateFrom and dateTo.

dateFrom

The start of the referenced date range (inclusive).

dateTo

The end of the referenced date range (exclusive).

question

The question that owns the referenced category.

type

Returns the name we use to refer to this class in the documentation.
