If the settlementPeriodFrom or\nsettlementPeriodTo parameters are provided, the corresponding from or to parameter instead filters on settlement\ndate, allowing for searching by a combination of start time and/or settlement date & settlement period.\nNote: When filtering via settlement date, from/to are treated as Dates only, with the time being ignored. For\nexample, 2022-06-01T00:00Z and 2022-06-01T11:11Z are both treated as the settlement date 2022-06-01.\n \nAll Dates and DateTimes should be expressed as defined within\nRFC 3339.\n \nSome examples of date parameter combinations are shown below.\n \nFiltering from start time to start time:\n \n /balancing/physical?from=2022-06-01T00:00Z&to=2022-07-01T00:00Z\n \nFiltering from start time to settlement date and period:\n \n /balancing/physical?from=2022-06-01T00:00Z&to=2022-07-01T00:00Z&settlementPeriodTo=1\n \nFiltering from settlement date and period to start time:\n \n /balancing/physical?from=2022-06-01T00:00Z&to=2022-07-01T00:00Z&settlementPeriodFrom=1\n \nFiltering from settlement date and period to settlement date and period:\n \n /balancing/physical?from=2022-06-01T00:00Z&to=2022-07-01T00:00Z&settlementPeriodFrom=1&settlementPeriodTo=1" parameters: - name: bmUnit in: query description: The BM Unit to query. required: true schema: type: string example: 2__HFLEX001 example: 2__HFLEX001 - name: from in: query description: The "from" start time or settlement date for the filter. required: true schema: type: string format: date-time example: 2022-09-22T00:00Z example: 2022-09-22T00:00Z - name: to in: query description: The "to" start time or settlement date for the filter. required: true schema: type: string format: date-time example: 2022-09-23T00:00Z example: 2022-09-23T00:00Z - name: settlementPeriodFrom in: query description: The "from" settlement period for the filter.
