To group data, users can drag and drop column headers onto and from the group panel. JavaScript DataGrid also supports keyboard shortcuts to perform grouping actions:

Ctrl+G
Move the focused column header to the group panel.
Backspace, Delete, and Ctrl+Shift+G
Remove the focused column header from the group panel. This shortcut is available for items in:
- The group panel.
- The column header if showWhenGrouped is enabled.
Shift+Alt+G
Ungroup all items from the group panel.

To allow users to reorder headers within the group panel, assign true to the allowColumnReordering property. Reordering headers in the group panel changes the component's group hierarchy. Users can reorder headers with mouse drag-and-drop operations or keyboard shortcuts:

Ctrl/Cmd+Left Arrow
Move the focused header to the left.
Ctrl/Cmd+Right Arrow
Move the focused header to the right.

Grouping and reordering operations are also available in the component's context menu.

To group data against a single column, apply the groupIndex property to it. This property accepts a zero-based index number that controls the column order. In this example, the data is grouped against the State column.

You can also use the grouping object to specify user interaction settings related to grouping. This demo illustrates the autoExpandAll property that specifies whether the groups appear expanded.
