Adding option to group by each specific month in new "Group By" feature

I’m loving the new “group by” feature, and when I select “creation log” to be the column that it receives data from to organize, it organizes into date focused groups like “today” “yesterday” “Last week” “last month” etc. but I wish there was an option to select it to group by months instead “January” “February” and so on.

Hi @jennd Welcome to the commuity!

You can achieve a similar effect by adding a Formula Column that extracts the month from the Creation Log column and then grouping by that column. Here’s how:

  1. Add a Formula Column to your board.
  2. Use this formula to extract the month name:

plaintext

CopyEdit

FORMAT_DATE({Creation Log}, "MMMM")

This will convert the date into a month name (e.g., “January”, “February”).
3. Group your items by this new Formula Column instead of the Creation Log column.

This will effectively give you the ability to organize items by month! Let me know if this helps, and feel free to leave a like if it solved your issue :blush::+1:
