Using Filter by a specific due date

[Amanda Schmidt]

How can I filter items due by a specific date? I am using the Calendar and Map Power-Ups and I need to see deliveries scheduled on specific days to plan the loading of trucks. Because I have locations on everything, I am getting too many cards showing on the map. If I want to see just the locations on a specific due date, so the map filters and shows just those cards, I could better plan out the delivery trucks. I tried using "Due: [date]" in the filtering field, however, I do not get accurate results.

Hi @Amanda Schmidt,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

I should have paid attention to what tool the question was for.

@Amanda Schmidt you can't filter by specific due dates, but you can set your due date *times* to be, say, midnight on the day the delivery is due and then filter by overdue cards to see all cards that need to be delivered on that day.

You could also create a report using a Butler Board Button that will email you (or post a comment to a card) with links to cards due within a specific timeframe:

If you want to see a list of cards that are due on a specific date and no other date you would need to do this with the API. This Trellinator function would print out a list of cards due on a given date:

You can run that function here in BenkoBot, just change the date and board name:

If you wanted to run this daily, for example, you could save that code snippet, paste it into the BenkoBot interface and run it in the morning to get a list of links to cards that need delivery on a specific date.

@Iain Dooley  Is this the “as a service” version? I noticed it saves API and Token on the browser and based on description user will need to invoke it daily. Will try it later.  Congrats.

@milynnus yep that's right, this is v1 :) it only does "one off" executions right now, the notification handling and scheduling are in closed beta, but I expect to have them public in a few weeks
