Problem

Write a SQL query to find the daily active users who performed a specific action at least three times within their first week of signing up.

Use users and events. Treat action_name = 'collection_run' as the specific action. The first week includes events from signup time through, but not including, seven days after signup.

Output

  1. One row per qualifying user and activity date
  2. Columns: user_id, activity_date
  3. Include only target-action activity during each qualifying user's first week
  4. Sort by activity_date, then user_id
