# Groups

### Creating Groups

Groups organize items defined by a set of [filters](/wdid/advanced/filters.md).  We can create them with the `group` command and passing a name and set of filters:

```
$ wdid group -n "my group name" -f "status=done,time=week,tag=@josler"
```

Both `--name` and `--filter` are required.

These groups can be used to provide saved sets of filters for easy use.

### List Items By Group

You can use groups to list items; either as part of a larger filter set, or just on their own.

```
# show all items in the group
$ wdid -g "my group name"

# filter using a group and just this week
$ wdid "group=my group name,time=week"
```

### **Listing Groups**

List groups via the `group-ls` command.

```
$ wdid group-ls
prs: "tag=#pr,time=this week"
o11y: "tag=#o11y,status!=done"
```

### Removing Groups

Groups can be deleted:

```
$ wdid group-rm --name prs
```
