...
It looks the same as a standard autocomplete search, but it will only have values you entered as the date source.
...
Now let's go through all the settings you can define for filters.
The first one is "Name of the Filter." You can see it in the label of a filter.
...
Here is also "ID of the Filter" which is displayed in the label of a filter, and you are able to find it in a Report Graph. It's used to link filters with entities.
...
Make sure you keep it unique.
...
The third option is a selector for entities for which the filter "Entity filter belong to" will be applied.
...
"Data source name" - it's either a search from OpenSearch or the predefined data.
...
Here you define the data attribute name that will be used for filtering. Please take into account that this setting is case-sensitive.
...
"The Attribute field type" setting is for attributes that have a string type. Here we have "keyword" by default. The difference between "field" and "keyword" is a type of search used to implement this filtering. More detailed information about this difference can be found in OpenSearch documentation.
...
"Sort Attribute." "The Sort order." Here are "Additional Attributes" which you may need later in post-processing.
...
In this setting you select the filter type: "autocomplete_search" or "date_time."
...
You see here switchers for multiple settings that define the behavior of your filter. The "Filter multiple selection" setting is responsible for the way how search will work in "start," "between," "end," or use the regular expression to match characters you enter in the search field.
...
Here you can enable the "Case-sensitive search" option. "Delay to start autocomplete search" refers to the delay between the time you start typing and the search process, a.k.a. actual search. The "Collapse result" has an impact on performance but take into account that it will work only for single value attributes. "Filter out all identical values," "Filter out all empty values," and the last option which will filter out entities that don't have the mandatory attributes you defined in "Entities."
...
This is a default behavior. Later, when you are in the filtering stage, you will be able to update these options from the web interface but your changes won't be saved for all reports. It will only work for one operation within the report.
