Number of sessions connected to database

I need to know how many sessions was connected in a period of time for each snapshot. Is this possible in Oracle?

Thanks

You can find this information in DBA_HIST_RESOURCE_LIMIT. Using this view requires the Diagnostic Pack option.

For example, sessions in the last 1 day:

select
  s.instance_number,
  s.end_interval_time,
  rn.current_utilization
from
  dba_hist_snapshot s
  join dba_hist_resource_limit rn on (s.snap_id = rn.snap_id and s.instance_number = rn.instance_number)
where
  rn.resource_name = 'sessions'
  and s.end_interval_time > sysdate - 1
order by
  s.end_interval_time
;

INSTANCE_NUMBER END_INTERVAL_TIME         CURRENT_UTILIZATION
