Save a filter

Atoti UI provides the ability to save filters. These can then be reused, in any widget whose targeted cube contains a hierarchy with the same name as the filter's hierarchy. They can also be shared with others in your organization.

Save a filter​

To save a filter:

  • Hover over the chosen filter tile in the tools panel, you will see some icons appear on the right of the tile.
  • Click the save icon to open the Save filter as popup.
  • Enter a name for your filter.
  • If you wish to save your filter in a folder, you can either select an existing folder from the list or click the folder icon to create a new folder.
  • Click Save filter to save your filter and close the popup.

Manage saved filters​

To open the Saved filters menu, click the Insert menu in the top navigation bar then choose Saved filters. Alternatively you can use the keyboard shortcut F. The Saved filters menu will appear on the left of the application in the place of the data model, displaying all of your saved filters.

Add a saved filter to a widget​

You can add a saved filter to a widget, page or dashboard from the Saved filters menu.

  • Drag a saved filter tile and drop it in the chosen section of the Filters tool.
  • Alternatively, clicking a saved filter tile will automatically add that filter to the This Widget section of the Filters tool (or the Widget filters section of the Content editor, if that is the selected tool), after any existing filters.
