Customers schema

The customers schema gives you access to insights about your customers, and makes it easy to segment your customers according to their purchase history. Insights include first-time versus returning customers, and automatic segmentation that separates your customers into promising, loyal, at-risk, and dormant.

Using SINCE and UNTIL will filter customers by the date of their first order. A query that filters with SINCE -1m UNTIL today will return all customers who placed their first order in the last month.
