Get Records with future closing date

Get Records with future closing date

Hi guys I am getting the list of Potentials using Zoho CRM api.
The  problem is that the list has a lot of records(>1000) and I do not want all of them since most of them are old and closed.
I want to filter based on a field "Closing Date" in "yyyy-mm-dd" format,
 all records whose "Closing Date" is not passed meaning they are still active.
I could only find filters with that date(Exp. &criteria=(Closing Date=yyyy-mm-dd) ) but not before/after that date.
Below is the link I am using but does not have date filter yet.

https://crm.zoho.com/crm/private/json/Potentials/getRecords?newFormat=1&authtoken={{token}}&scope=crmapi&selectColumns=Potentials(POTENTIALID,Potential Name,Closing Date)&fromIndex=1&toIndex=200&sortColumnString=Potential Name

Any one knows how to achieve this, I believe it is an important feature it should exist somehow.

Thanks :)
