I have a SharePoint list "messages" with a date column "lastlyupdatedon" (month-day-year) without time.

I need to get a distinct list of the years used in that SharePoint list.

So far i got this:

ClearCollect(
 colFilterYears,
 ShowColumns(
 Messages,
 "LastlyUpdatedOn"
 )
)

I am not able to use directly the function year() inside, am I? The result should be a collection with the values 2021, 2022, 2023 etc.

Hi @esemuhdeoh ,

This should do it

ClearCollect( colFilterYears, Distinct( AddColumns( Messages, "YearUpdate", Year(LastlyUpdatedOn) ), YearUpdate ) )

There is a missing comma after "YearUpdate" but except from that it works fine.
