# Grouping and ordering monitors

## Ordering monitors

By default, the most recently created monitors are shown first.

To change the order: 

- Go to [Monitors](https://uptime.betterstack.com/team/0/monitors ";_blank").
- Hover over the monitor group and click the **Sort** button in the upper right corner.
- Choose how you want to sort your monitors.

## Grouping monitors

To create a new group:

- Go to [Monitors](https://uptime.betterstack.com/team/0/monitors ";_blank").
- On a monitor, click the `⋯` button on the right side.
- In the context menu, select **Create group** and name your new group.
- You can move more monitors in by using **Move to**, or create a monitor in the group directly by clicking the `+` in the group header menu.

[info]
To bulk-edit large amounts of monitors, we'd recommend selecting multiple monitors at once and using bulk actions or giving [our Uptime API](https://betterstack.com/docs/uptime/api/getting-started-with-uptime-api/) a try.
