How to Filter Power Apps Gallery by Dates in the Current Month

Want to showcase only the dates of the current month in your Power Apps gallery? Let’s dive in and see how it’s done using a SharePoint list.

Input Data Source

We are using a SharePoint list named “Calendar Dates” which has continuous dates ranging from 1/1/2018 to 12/31/2024, encompassing 2,557 rows in total. Here’s a sneak peek:

Title CalendarDate
Monday, January 1, 2018 1/1/2018
Tuesday, January 2, 2018 1/2/2018
Tuesday, December 31, 2024 12/31/2024

Code to Filter by Current Month

Implement the following code in the Items property of your gallery:


With(
    {
        InitDate: Date(
            Year(Today()),
            Month(Today()),
            1
        ),
        TermDate: Date(
            Year(Today()),
            Month(Today())+1,
            1
        )-1
    },
    Filter(
        'Calendar Dates',
        CalendarDate >= InitDate,
        CalendarDate <= TermDate
    )
)
        

 

Reference: 

  1. Filter  functions
  2. With function

 

Output Result

With this code implemented, the gallery will only display rows with dates in the current month. For illustration, if today’s date is 6/16/2021, the output will be:

Title CalendarDate
Tuesday, June 1, 2021 6/1/2021
Wednesday, June 30, 2021 6/30/2021
