	Sort the filters by number of items that matches them.

In the upper-left side of the page, you can see any filters you have applied. Remove filters by clicking the icon next to the filter. Or clear all filters by clicking Reset.

Note: When applying filters, the search uses the logical AND operator if the used filters are different. However, when the filter is of the same type, the search uses the logical OR operator.

Those filters that have more than 10 options include a Filter Values search field for writing text and making the search easier. If there are more than 50 search results, a icon appears to the right of the Filter Values search field. Click this icon to download a CSV containing up to 1024 results.
