Why are my group headers blank?

Hello!

Might be a silly question but is there a way to title group headers on a report. I'm grouping by the primary column which is copying data from the "Status" column. and I would like the headers to display the different "statuses" it's being grouped by but for some reason they're blank. Is this possible?

    Hi @Gary Quinn,

    Having tested on my end, I confirmed that group headers in reports will always be shown in the Primary column of the report, even if the report is grouped by a column other than the Primary column. 

    I can see in the screenshot of your report that at least one column is hidden - try right-clicking on any column header and selecting “Unhide all columns” to see if the group headers are then visible. 

    You can then re-hide any columns other than the Primary column, but you’ll need to keep the Primary column visible in order to see the group headers.

    Hope that helps!
