How to select last one week data from today's date

Question

How to select week data (more precisely, last 7 days data) from the current date in the fastest way as I have millions or rows in the table. I have a time stamp of created_d

Answer 1

to select records for the last 7 days

WHERE Created_Date >= DATEADD(day, -7, GETDATE())

to select records for the current week

SET DATEFIRST 1 -- Define beginning of week as Monday
SELECT * FROM
WHERE CreatedDate >= DATEADD(day, 1 - DATEPART(dw, GETDATE()), CONVERT(DATE, GETDATE())) 
  AND CreatedDate <  DATEADD(day, 8 - DATEPART(dw, GETDATE()), CONVERT(DATE, GETDATE()))

if you want to select records for last week instead of the last 7 days

SET DATEFIRST 1 -- Define beginning of week as Monday
SELECT * FROM  
WHERE CreatedDate >= DATEADD(day, -(DATEPART(dw, GETDATE()) + 6), CONVERT(DATE, GETDATE())) 
  AND CreatedDate <  DATEADD(day, 1 - DATEPART(dw, GETDATE()), CONVERT(DATE, GETDATE()))
