Looking to create a Klip that only pulls data from the current month - I have attached an of an example of the data set.
What Formula would I need to use to only COUNT cells which have a date in the current month?

Hi Tom,
To get all the dates in column C that are in the current month you can use DATE_IN( DATE( @C:C,"M/d/yy"),month). This gives you a set of true/false values.
You can combine this with other logic to get the count. For example if you are building a label component you could add a filter to filter on TRUE and then "show aggregated value" will count the results.
Another option is to use the COUNTIF function. e.g. COUNTIF(DATE_IN( DATE( @C:C,"M/d/yy"),month))
Here are some links to the function references and filtering docs in our knowledge base.

Hope this helps,

Thank you Keely! Very helpful.
I've tried to go one step further by building a formula that shows a value ONLY IF column B & column C are both in the current month.
COUNTIF(DATE_IN(DATE(@DOC,B:B;,"M/d/yy"),"month"),AND(DATE_IN(DATE(@DOC,C:C;,"M/d/yy"),"month")))
Doesn't seem to be working? What have I done wrong here?
Hi Tom,
You have the right idea. The syntax for the AND needs to be adjusted just a bit.
Try COUNTIF(
AND(
DATE_IN(DATE(@DOC,B:B;,"M/d/yy"),"month"),
DATE_IN(DATE(@DOC,C:C;,"M/d/yy"),"month")))
And for future reference - if you want to get data if either of the columns are in the current month you can use OR instead of AND.
