Dashboard Filtering Options

dashboard level filters act as the default filtering mechanism for all cards in the dashboard they are defined in settings and schedules > configurations and apply uniformly across cards unless individually overridden to configure select date fields for each application (for example, first created , last updated ) assign a default time range (for example, last 7 days ) cards that inherit these settings will automatically apply the defined filters example app a has first created as the selected date field app b has no date field selected global date range last 7 days effect cards based on app a display data from the last 7 days by default cards based on app b do not apply global filters and show unfiltered data unless configured at the card level card level filters each card can override dashboard level filters to apply a card level filter select ⋮ > edit card disable the always use the dashboard’s date range selection toggle choose a custom date field set a specific date range this enables focused views within a broader dashboard context example suppose the dashboard level date range is july 10–17 card a inherits dashboard filters and displays data only from july 10 to july 17 card b overrides with a custom range of july 1 to july 3 result card a maintains dashboard level consistency card b shows a tailored view for deeper analysis runtime filters (session based) runtime filters provide a temporary way to explore different data slices without modifying persistent dashboard or card settings these are ideal for ad hoc investigations or validations to apply a runtime filter from the dashboard or card toolbar, select the calendar icon choose a quick or custom date range click apply note runtime filters are session specific they are cleared when the page is refreshed or reopened a padlock icon appears on the card when a runtime filter is active runtime filters empower mssp analysts and operators to quickly triage based on recent events, adjust time windows on the fly, or pivot their view without impacting team wide configurations custom date range filtering custom date range filtering is a part of runtime filtering you can apply quick select ranges or define custom expressions to adjust the data window interactively for more information, see
