Last updated 4 years ago

One of the core features of is the ability to filter rows according to particular criteria. When a Row is filtered, it is not deleted—it's just hidden from the particular View you're using and remains within the table (Views are virtual tables!).

Try adding filters when:

  • You need to focus on rows that meet certain conditions (e.g. Classes between May and June, and taught by Albert Einstein).

  • You need to display certain information, to certain people (e.g Each sales person can only view their own commission).
