Filter Types

You can add standard filters or embedded filters. These filters can either be available for all dashboards in a space or limited to the dashboard they were created on.

• A Native Filter is only available on the dashboard it was created on.
  
  
• A Filter is available to all dashboards in the entire space. When you edit a filter, the changes apply to all instances of the filter on any dashboard in the space.
  
  

Standard Filters, when active, display as filter cards at the top of the dashboard:

Resting your cursor over the card shows more information:

Clicking on a filter card opens the Filter Drawer where business users can choose different values for the filter.

Note: The color of a filter card is controlled by the dashboard theme. See Dashboard Themes.

Embedded filters are used in a dashlet. Embedded filter colors are dashlet properties set at the dashlet and theme levels.
