Define Filter Conditions

  • By setting up filter conditions, we check if there is at least one record in the system that matches my defined criteria.

  • On every object node that you access, you can define filter conditions. To do so, select Define Filter Conditions = Yes.

  • This opens the Conditions Builder, consisting of 3 actions:

    1. Define a filter condition
    2. Add new condition(s)
    3. Condition filter logic

2. Select a field to filter based on its data.

  • You can either scroll through the fields list or enter the name or a part of the field name or API name to narrow down the selection.
  • Per each available field, you can see an icon indicating the field type (checkbox, text, date, etc.), the field label, and the API name.
  • You got access to all standard, custom and managed package fields.
  • Click on the field to confirm your selection.

Accessibility and security

Users can only select fields they can access based on their user permissions.

2. Select the Operator

  • Based on the selected field type, you get a selection of available operators to choose from. See the current filter operator reference for exact availability, relative dates, and null behavior.

3. Define your filter value

  • To finalize your filter condition, select or enter a filter value.

  • If you want to add more filter conditions, click + Add Condition and repeat the steps of Define a filter condition.

  • If you made a mistake and want to remove a filter condition, click the bin icon to the right of this filter condition.

  • As soon as you have more than one filter condition, you need to decide what logic should apply.
  • The default logic is: All Conditions Are Met.
    • So, each defined filter condition must be met for a record to be part of this audience.
    • Condition 1 AND Condition 2 AND Condition 3.
  • Alternatively, you can choose:
    • Any Condition Is Met
      • Using this filter logic, it doesn’t matter which filter conditions are met as long as one is met.
      • Condition 1 OR Condition 2 OR Condition 3.
    • Custom Logic Is Met
      • Using this filter logic, you unlock a custom input field where you need to define the logic yourself.
      • A number displays each filter condition that you can see to the left of the conditions.
      • You can use AND, OR, NOT, and parentheses to group the logic. Every condition must be referenced.
      • Example: Condition 1 AND (Condition 2 OR Condition 3)

  • Once you’ve defined all filter conditions and set up the logic, click Done to finish the setup.
  • If you don’t want to save your input or changes, click Cancel or the close button (x) above the top right corner.
