When working with Datasets in Databox, you can apply filters directly to your raw data. This is useful for removing unwanted rows (e.g., those containing a specific keyword), excluding empty values, or applying more advanced filtering logic before visualizing the data in Metric Builder where you build Custom Metrics using that specific Dataset.
How to add filters to your Dataset
Go to Data Manager > Datasets.
Find your Dataset and click View data and then click Edit Data.
Click the down arrow next to any column name and click on Filter.
You can add one or more filters to include or exclude rows based on your criteria.
Available filter operators include:
Equals / Does Not Equal
Include / Exclude
Contains / Does Not Contain
Starts With / Ends With
Is Empty / Is Not Empty
You can also set the Matching Logic to either:
Match All (AND)
Match Any (OR)
PRO TIP: You can rename any column by clicking on the column name and entering a new label. This is perfect for cleaning up your data before using it in visualizations.
