# Display a date picker with Marked Dates from a Get Records

## Overview

This tutorial displays a date picker component showing marked dates from a Get Records collection. This feature will help users quickly visualize important dates retrieved from the Get Records collection while interacting with the date picker.

In this example, we will use dates from the Task object as marked dates.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.avonnicomponents.com/flow/tutorials/components/date-picker/display-a-date-picker-with-marked-dates-from-a-get-records.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
