Filter Scopes

You can apply filters at different scopes in your workbook in Oracle Analytics, from broadly filtering the entire workbook down to filtering a single visualization on a canvas.

You can apply filters at the following levels:

  • Workbook - A workbook filter is used in the workbook filter bar and applies to all canvases in the workbook. See Use the Workbook Filter Bar.
  • Canvas - A canvas filter is also used in the workbook filter bar, but applies only to a single canvas in the workbook. See Use the Workbook Filter Bar.
  • Dashboard - A dashboard filter is used directly on a canvas to enable consumers to filter data on that canvas. See Use Dashboard Filters.
  • Visualization - A visualization filter applies only to a single visualization. See Use Visualization Filters.
