# Table Filtering

To use the filtering tool first click on the button labeled 🔍 **Search** which can be found on the Crash, Summary, and Key Crash pages.

Next, select a column to filter in the Search dropdown. After picking a column, select the desired search criteria and enter a value and click **Submit**. Repeat this process until you've found exactly what you're looking for.

In the BugSplat web application, users can filter their crash data based on almost any piece of data attributed to a crash or stack key.

### Column Types

BugSplat's data is grouped into various columns. Each column can hold 1 of 4 data types. Each data type has slightly different options regarding how it can be searched. The types of data searchable within BugSplat are as follows:

| **Type** | **Options**                                                                                  |
| -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Text     | equal to, not equal to, contains, does not contain, empty, not empty, starts with, ends with |
| Number   | equal to, not equal to, greater than, less than, empty, not empty                            |
| Date     | on or before, on or after                                                                    |

### Sharing and Exporting Searches

Once you have the correct set of data selected, you might want to click **Copy Search**, to save the URL to your clipboard to share with a team member.

Searches can be bookmarked by your browser so that they can be accessed more quickly.

You can also export the selected data to CSV or JSON using the **Export** button so that the data can be viewed in tools such as Microsoft Excel.
