Hello Rihene, Iwould like to do the same,create a custom field with the name of the month of a date. ¿how did you solve it? Thanks

#import datetime library

from datetime import datetime


month = datetime.strptime('2016-01-01', "%Y-%m-%d").strftime('%B')#Converting a string format datetime into datetime() type.

You can use different directives as per your requirement in place of "%B". You can find them \here.

Hi Drees,

     you should use split method of python

i am consider date as year-month-date

data_value='2016-01-01'

get_month=data_value.split('-)[1]

if get_month=='1':

   month_name='january'

if you have such issues issues mail me on virzoteck@gmail.com
