Quicksight datepicker for month only

Question

I'm searching for a way to have month selection and that will serve as startdate and enddate for the date filtering.

I'm building a monthly report on quicksight, I try to use the last 31 days but that give information of multiple months

I already create date picker for those parameters but didn't find any way to limit the value to be the complete month only.

Example : if select the 12 september I desire to get the September values only (from the 1er to the 31th)

Any advice is welcome Thanks for your help

Answer 1

First, add a new date filter (if you want, e.g., today to be the default you'll need to add a dynamic default against a data set that returns today)

Add a new control (I found naming this to be difficult, perhaps you're better at picking names than I am)

Add a new calculated field that returns 1 if the truncDate of your date field and the truncDate of your parameter are equal, otherwise return 0

ifelse(
  truncDate("MM", {date}) = truncDate("MM", ${InMonth}),
  1,
  0
)

Finally, add a filter that checks where your calculated field is 1 and apply it to all visuals
