My company is starting to use data tables within Zoom Docs to project manage and assign out tasks. We have been using the "General Project Tracker" template. That template comes with 4 groups. You can edit the names of the groups. But for the life of me, I can not figure out how to create more groups. There is a project that has 5 key sections that I would love to put within one data table inside of a Zoom doc ... but I can't figure out how to create another grouping.

Is it possible to create another group within a Data Table??

I just figured it out : start typing the new group name, regardless of what's in the dropdown. It'll allow you to create the new group as you type a group name that does not exist yet.

If you unhide the Task Type column and use that, it will dynamically create a new grouping if you put a new word in that cell.

@trevawoller sorry this has slipped our attention.
You can create a new group by @fearlessknitter 's answer:
1. Unhide the 'Task type' column by clicking on the eye button in the screenshot.
2. Adding the 5th project's 'Task type' in this column

Then you will see a new group for the task type.

Hope this helps.
