🗂 In-app filter

[WyattS]

Thanks, Jeff. Do you have a write up on how you were able to accomplish that? Right now I use the in-app filter to narrow down users’ search, but from there is like to drill down another layer. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Here you go:

Multiple Dynamic Filters on a Map?

I modified the concepts app to have 2 levels of filters. First there is the existing Region filter. When you select a Region, it will modify a relation column that is used to show the Divisions within that region. You can then further filter to a specific Division within that Region. It’s a little hard to explain, but I’ll give it my best shot. My first Choice Component List uses the Region column in DynamicFilterChoices. This is the easy part. Next In the DynamicFilterUser sheet, I have …

Thank you for fixing the in-app filter for Calendar layouts. Just noticed it was working. Much appreciated.

In-App filter / In-App sort isn’t changing to filled icon when it is applied.

Also keen to know when this feature will be available! Thanks!!

Is there a way to have a default filter ON, so that when they open the app \ page its already filtered by one of the choices.

Thanks

[Jeff_Hager]

Not that I’m aware of.

Hi @Mark.

Glad to hear that a visual indicator that an in-app filter is applied is in your to do list.

It would be great also to show which filters are applied.

Thanks for all!

Guys, how can I use AND criteria with in app filters? I understand it works for the OR criteria .

With the number of filters I have/ want, I can not create all the possible options using IF Then Else columns.

Create as many choice components as you need, then filter an inline list of items by the “screen” values.

Thanks @ThinhDinh!
Any example of how it looks? Last time I saw someone using choice components for filtering, it seemed a bit ugly . I would really prefer for the filter criteria to be hidden behind that funnel.

[ThinhDinh]

Ha, there’s no way to hide them… It would be a list of choice components as you would expect.

Thanks. This is such a basic feature. Can’t believe Glide hasn’t offered it yet.

But… it doesn’t work well when multiple filters are selected. Why?

[ThinhDinh]

What do you mean by “doesn’t work well”? Do you mean the filter is built with an OR logic but you want an AND or something like that?

[Roy_Golan]

+1 This is important

[ThinhDinh]

Does it not work like that for you at the moment? Can you provide us with a video of the problem?

Would love a way to style the filter differently. For example have it as a component so we can move it around the page and style it as chips.

I just realised my own DIY filter is user-specific and completely useless if someone is logged out

That shouldn’t be the case.
User specific columns work the same regardless of user sign in status.
The only difference is that values will not persist across sessions if a user is not signed in.

Where are you storing the filter values?

[Pinipy]

I was storing it in the users table but I believe I need to move it over to a working table which would work when logged out?
