Grouping by Operating System in View does not function properly

OS version: Ubuntu docker

Hi commnity,

I’ve created a custom view dashboard. In this dashboard I’m using grouping functionality and picked Hosts: Inventory attribute: Operating system ➤ Operating system.
Now I see multple different tables with the same header, instead of multiple rows in the same header.

Why is this a problem? See screenshoot

Hi @mike123,

have you tried sorting first and then grouping?

Thanks for the reply. Sorting is enabled. See options below

@kdeutsch the suggestion did not work.

It’s a bug or no?

Hi @mike123,

I have recreated your task on my end. You are correct, it does not function as expected.

Version 2.1.0p5.cre here. Any random inventory attribute I tried so far, putting it both as the only sorting and grouping option, results in similar issues. Same with labels.

Host tags seems to work, but to add tags on host based on their OS seems a bit too much.

Easier would be to export view to csv or json, and do the grouping externally.

I can confirm that this is still broken in 2.4.0p21cee. I wanted to create the same view and encountered the same problems.

Upgraded to 2.4.0p29 and issue is resolved!
