Manage Saved Filters

Published April 28, 2025 | Last modified October 28, 2026

Objective

This document provides instructions on how to work with the F5® Distributed Cloud Services saved filters. Filters are created on some of the overview page such as a dashboard where you can observe the operation of your configuration. These filters allow you to refine what you see on the page by restricting the dataset in some way or specifying a specific time frame. You can save your viewing configuration as a saved filter, allowing you to quick change how you view the data presented. The filters you save are specific to your current namespace.

Prerequisites

An F5 Distributed Cloud Account. If you do not have an account, see Get Started with Console.

Configuration

View Saved Filters

To create a report on a service, you must specify the type of information you want to see in the report.

From the Console homepage, select the Web App & API Protection or Shared Configuration service.
Navigate to Manage > Saved Filters.

Figure: List of Saved Filters

Interact with Your Saved Filters

The Saved Filters page shows a list of filters that were created in the current namespace. The selector at the top organizes the filters:

My Filters - These filters are specific to your user login, meaning you created them.
Others - These are filters created by your teammates.
Expired - These filters specify time frames that are beyond the limit for saved data. These are no longer usable and are saved merely so that you know why they are no longer in the My Filters or Others lists.
Enter a string in the Search field to only see saved filters with that string shown in the table.
Click the name of a saved filter to see details for the filter in a slide panel showing additional information about the saved filter.
Click the trash can icon in the Delete column for a saved filter to delete that filter.
