    Yes it is possible you can apply the selection the particular column and use >= and <= to fetch the data between two dates and concat them using to string.

    Your query will be like this

      a!queryEntity_22r2(
        entity: cons!AA_VEHICLES_DSE_POINTER,
    
        query: a!query(
          selection: a!querySelection(
            columns: a!queryColumn(
              field: "vehicleDateAdded"
            )
          ),
          logicalExpression: a!queryLogicalExpression(
            operator: "AND",
            filters: {
    
              a!queryFilter(
                field: "vehicleDateAdded",/*field Name*/
                operator: ">=",
                value: ri!startDate
              ),
              a!queryFilter(
                field: "vehicleDateAdded",/*field Name*/
                operator: "<=",
                value: ri!endDate
              )
            },
            ignoreFiltersWithEmptyValues: true
          ),
          pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(
            startIndex: 1,
            batchSize: 10
          )
        ),
        fetchTotalCount: false
      ).data
