Create filters from a mapedit
Create filters from your map to focus in on just the data you want. Maps provides three ways to create filters:
Filter dashboard by map boundsedit
To filter your dashboard by your map bounds as you pan and zoom your map:
- Open the main menu, and then click Dashboard.
- Select your dashboard from the list or click Create dashboard.
- If your dashboard does not have a map, add a map panel.
-
Click the gear icon
to open the map panel menu.
- Select More to view all panel options.
- Select Filter dashboard by map bounds.
- Select the checkbox for your map panel.
Spatial filtersedit
A spatial filter narrows search results to documents that either intersect with, are within, or do not intersect with the specified geometry.
Spatial filters have the following properties:
- Geometry label enables you to provide a meaningful name for your spatial filter.
- Spatial relation determines the spatial relation operator to use at search time.
- Action specifies whether to apply the filter to the current view or to a drilldown action.
Drilldowns are available only if the map is a panel in a dashboard, and not within the Maps application.
You can create spatial filters in two ways:
-
Click the tool icon
, and then draw a shape, bounding box, or distance on the map to define the spatial filter.
- Click Filter by geometry in a locked tooltip, and then use the feature’s geometry for the spatial filter.
Phrase filtersedit
A phrase filter narrows search results to documents that contain the specified text.
You can create a phrase filter by clicking the plus icon 
in a locked tooltip.
If the map is a dashboard panel with drilldowns, you can apply a phrase filter to a drilldown by selecting the drilldown action.
