# Access Parts of a Date

Use the `EXTRACT()` function to access parts of a date. You can use `EXTRACT()` in projections, filtering, grouping and ordering.

`EXTRACT()` follows this syntax.

```nolang
EXTRACT(DATE_PART FROM DATE_FIELD)
```

A date part can be one of the following values.

- `YEAR`
- `QUARTER`
- `MONTH`
- `WEEK`
- `DAY`
- `HOUR`
- `MINUTE`
- `SECOND`
- `EPOCH_DAY`
- `EPOCH`
- `FISCAL_YEAR`
- `FISCAL_QUARTER`
- `FISCAL_MONTH`
- `FISCAL_WEEK`

:::note
If you query a date field that doesn't contain time information, it will return 0.
