Hi,
I have been trying to figure out how I can create a formula to create a new attribute of Month in a data set collected using the NOAA weather data. There is a when attribute in the dataset when it is created from the plugin but I am having trouble figuring out what format it is in to know what kind of function I need to transform it to create a new attribute. Basically if the when is 1/2/2026 I want the Month attribute to then be January.
Hi Travis,
In the formula editor you can browse the available functions by category. The Date/Time category, as shown in the accompanying screenshot, has two functions that might serve your purpose. The month function takes a date and returns the number of the month for that date while the monthName function returns the name of the corresponding month.
I hope that helps!
Bill
