About Group By

Group rows by category and calculate sums or averages.

Group By collapses your CSV around one category column and applies a single aggregation — sum, average, count, min, or max — to a chosen value column. It's the CSV equivalent of a spreadsheet's SUMIF or AVERAGEIF, but applied automatically across every category in the column at once.

Unlike Pivot Table, there's no dragging fields into rows and columns — you pick a group-by column, a value column, and an aggregation, and get a clean summary table back instantly.

Common Use Cases

  • Totaling revenue per customer ID
  • Averaging order value per region
  • Counting transactions per day

Key Features

  • Single-Column Grouping
  • Sum/Average/Count/Min/Max
  • Instant Summary Table
  • CSV Export of Results

Use Group By for a quick one-column summary; if you later need to cross that category against a second dimension, graduate to Pivot Table, then visualize the totals with Charts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of aggregations can I compute?

Sums, averages, and other standard aggregations grouped by a category column, similar to a pivot table's core function.

Does it require SQL knowledge?

No, it's a point-and-click grouping tool, not a query language.

The fastest path from raw transaction rows to a per-category total, built for analysts who do not need a full pivot.
