Grid Filters

The Grid Filters feature in LogLab allows users to refine their log data by applying filters directly to the log entries grid columns. This functionality provides a flexible and powerful way to narrow down log entries based on specific criteria, helping users to focus on the most relevant information.

Key Features:

• Column-Specific Filtering:

  • Users can apply filters to individual columns in the log entries grid, specifying the criteria for each filter.

• Various Filter Types:

  • Choose from a wide range of filter types to tailor the filtering criteria:
    • Equal: Show entries where the column value is equal to the specified value.
    • Not Equal: Show entries where the column value is not equal to the specified value.
    • Contains: Show entries where the column value contains the specified text.
    • Does Not Contain: Show entries where the column value does not contain the specified text.
    • Starts With: Show entries where the column value starts with the specified text.
    • Ends With: Show entries where the column value ends with the specified text.
    • Greater Than: Show entries where the column value is greater than the specified value.
    • Less Than: Show entries where the column value is less than the specified value.
    • Between: Show entries where the column value falls within the specified range.

• Combine Filters:

  • Apply multiple filters across different columns to achieve more specific and targeted results.

How It Works:

1. Applying a Filter:

   • Click on the filter icon in the column header of the log entries grid.
   • Select the desired filter type (Equal, Contains, Does Not Contain, etc.).
   • Enter the filter value and apply the filter.

2. Combining Filters:

   • Apply filters to multiple columns by repeating the steps above for each column.
   • The grid will display log entries that meet all the specified filter criteria.

3. Managing Filters:

   • Users can edit or remove filters by clicking on the filter icon again and adjusting the filter settings or clearing the filter.

Benefits:

• Focused Analysis: Allows users to concentrate on specific log entries that match the defined criteria, reducing the noise and improving clarity.
• Flexibility: Multiple filter types and the ability to combine filters provide a high degree of customization for data filtering.
• Efficiency: Quickly narrow down log entries to the most relevant subset, enhancing the efficiency of log analysis.
