The interactive builder makes it easy to build up a Filter Expression of medium complexity, one line at a time--where each line compares the value of a field to some value.

Creating a Filter Expression

To create a filter expression:

  1. Select an object field and a comparison operator
  2. Specify a value to compare to
  3. Add or remove comparisons, as needed.

Specifying Values

Comparison values are most often specified as numbers and strings, as in the example above.

  • Number - a collection of digits: 91410
  • String - a sequence of alphanumeric characters in quotes: 'This is a string'

It is also possible to specify values for other kinds of fields.

Using the Advanced Options

Clicking Advanced Options lets you put parentheses around expression elements, and choose the logical operatores AND and OR to determine how the elements are combined.
