Web - filter, group by, search and export

Created by: Harpa Guðrún Hreinsdóttir

In this article, you are going to read about the filter, group by, search and export functions in exMon. The Table Editor has powerful options to find and filter data but the main filtering options are:

1. Search - Searches data in all columns
2. Column Filters - Filter specific columns based on data existing in the columns
3. Filter Row - Free text search for each column
4. Table Filters - Column filters for popular columns, chosen at design time.

Search

The search function allows you to search for a specific term in all columns. Click the Search box to start searching and enter the search term. When searching for multiple words, you can use quotes to search for them together.

Column Filters

Hover over a column header and click the Funnel icon to open a Column Filter. The filter shows all values currently in the data and allows you to quickly filter to specific values. Note that numeric and date/time columns allow you to filter based on ranges.

Filter Row

Right-clicking on a column header, and then selecting Filter Row displays filtering options per column.

In the Filter Row, you can enter search terms specific for each column. By default, the search term can be anywhere in the field.

Table Filters

You can specifically configure common or regularly used filters, in the Table Designer.

When you have the option to employ filters, you will see a Filters panel displayed on the right of the window. When a value is selected, such as Athens in the example below, the data gets filtered in the Table Editor.
