Filtering and Sorting Documents

This article explains how to filter and sort documents to focus on specific subsets of documents within a workspace.

 

Filtering Documents


Users can filter the workspace document list to display only documents that match selected criteria. Filters affect only your view of the workspace and do not affect other users.

Only one filter can be active at a time. Applying a filter to a different column clears the previously applied filter.

How to Filter Documents

To apply a filter:

  1. Open the filter panel next to the column you wish to filter on.

  2. Choose the appropriate filter option.

  3. Select the value to filter by.

  4. Then click Apply.

After clicking Apply, the document list updates to display only documents matching the selected filter.

To remove the active filter and return to the full document list, click Clear Filters.

Note: Applied filters and sorting remain in place when the page is refreshed.
