Understand how you can create a Saved Filter in a TRAC search.
Learn where you can access Saved Filters in your TRAC searches.
The 'Saved filters' functionality is a handy feature that makes filtering for data on TRAC easy and efficient. It provides you with the tools necessary to preserve specific slices of the dataset (filters), which you can easily return to, as well apply to any view in your TRAC search.
This feature proves especially beneficial when you're dealing with a broad brand search. It enables you to craft multiple saved filters, thereby enabling you to segment your datasets and focus on the insights that really matter. And not only can you create as many saved filters as you need, but you can also reuse the same saved filters as the foundation for your reports, KPI email alerts and even email digests.
How to Create a Saved Filter
Anytime you select different variables in the filter panel, you get the option to apply that filter to filter on the fly, or to create that filter and save it. This is shown in the image below - bottom left.
📝 Note: Once you have selected 'Save Filter', you will have the option to save it as a standalone filter, or attach a date range to the filter.
How to Access Saved Filters
You can access your saved filters by navigating to the filter panel and selecting the button that says "Saved Filters".
Once you click into this, you will have three types of saved filters:
Regular Filters: These are saved filters that you have created yourself and saved in the search.
Custom Charts: These are filters that you have created as chart segments within your Custom Dashboards.
Audiense Reports: These are filters that are automatically created from any Audiense reports that are created in the Audience Insights > Communities section.
