What format are the dates in?

Dates are output as ISO 8601 strings: YYYY-MM-DD (e.g. 2025-07-14).

What if I enter the end date before the start date?

The generator automatically swaps them so the earlier date is always the start.

Can I generate dates in a specific month only?

Set both start and end to the same month, e.g. 2025-03-01 to 2025-03-31.
