Concept: Hubs Context Filters

Hubs use a robust system of context filters to:

Drive the displayed data.

Ensure that the data on dashboard, sheet, or report pages is accurate and relevant to the user.

You can:

Manage the hub filters at the page level.

Categorize the filters as:

Static: Core filters available on most pages. You can’t reorder or remove these filters. Example: Version, Time (or Period), Level, and Currency.

Mutable: Core filters, Time (or Period), and Currency. If muted, the filters won't display in the page filter toolbar.

Addible: Filters representing custom dimensions and attributes that you can add, remove, and reorder. Example: Any non-static dimensions such as Country Region, Base Pay.

Filter Behavior by Page Type

Based on what’s displaying on a page, your interactions with filters can vary:

On dashboard pages, you can:

Add, remove, and reorder non-core filters.

Enable or disable multi-select.

Mute mutable filters.

Set default filters using the

Edit Filters

option.

On sheet pages, you can:

View filters and set default values for non-core filters.

Set default filter values only for version and level for Standard and Assumption sheets.

On report pages, you can edit default filters.

Whenever you add, remove, reorder, or change the default filter values, the data on the page gets refreshed and filters are applied.

Enabling Multi-Select

On Dashboard pages, you can enable or disable the multi-select option to control how users interact with dimension filters:

When multi-select is enabled, filters (Level, Custom Dimensions, and Attributes) allow multiple value selections.

When multi-select is disabled, filters allow only single value selection. For these filters, selecting the parent dimension such as Country Region also selects all child values for that dimension.

Selecting Filters

When searching and selecting filters that you can add to your hub pages, the results:

Include only parent-level dimensions.

Exclude dimensions that are already available on the page.
