Using Operators to Combine Filters

Use

You can use operators between your filters to allow combinations of filter expressions. The default option is to combine multiple expressions with AND. In this case, each filter in the statement is required to test true for the filter to be seen as matching at a given node. If you change this to OR, at least one filter in the statement is required to test true for the filter to be seen as matching a given node.

Activities

Combining Filters for a Query

Make your filter selections as required and perform one of the following:

  • Click AND to combine the filters. If using AND and a filter returns False, the next filter is not evaluated. Therefore, it is recommended to write the fastest or easiest filter first.

  • Click OR to combine the filters with at least one filter in the statement required to test true in the query. If you use OR to combine multiple filters, it is recommended to first write the fastest or easiest filter. If the first filter returns True, subsequent operators with are not evaluated
