Rolling 30-Day Average Query

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Beyond Finance wants to monitor daily sign-ups for its debt-relief application funnel. Write a PostgreSQL query that calculates the rolling 30-day average of valid user sign-ups for the reporting period from February 1 through February 5, 2024.

Requirements

  1. Count each user only once per sign-up date, even if duplicate sign-up events exist.
  2. Exclude test users and events that are not sign-up events.
  3. Treat days with no valid sign-ups as zero and calculate the average across the current day and preceding 29 calendar days.
  4. Return the reporting date, daily sign-ups, and rolling average, ordered chronologically.
