Hey Gliders!
Are you struggling with date formatting, broken relations, or setting up a daily/monthly calendar in Glide? You’re not alone! Many users, including Maria Lindquist, have asked how to extract only the month and year from a date—and that’s just the tip of the iceberg when working with dates in Glide.
To help, I created a step-by-step video guide covering:
Extracting only the month & year from a date column
Fixing failing date relations (caused by hidden time components)
Building a dynamic daily & monthly calendar to track expenses or events

Quick Tip:
If you need to format a date to display only the month & year, use:
MMMM yyyy
→ “February 2024”
MM/yyyy
→ “02/2024”
For relations to work, both date columns must have the exact same format!
Bonus: If you’re looking for a way to skip the setup and start using a ready-made solution, you might want to check out a little hidden gem in the YouTube video description.
