Filter your data
Save filters as views.
Filters can be saved as part of a view. For more information on creating and using views, check out our page on Database views.
Databases aren’t available in the Atlassian Government environment.
Filters make it easy to display only the items in your database that meet a collection of specified criteria or individual conditions. This criteria determines what items to display depending on if it has or doesn’t have the specified properties. Filter groups and individual filters can be as simple or complex as needed.
