# Filter Data

Filtering data within reports allows you to drill down and explore specific cuts of data. You can filter data in four ways:

1. **Demographic:** Data that is created from the column headers in a Participant Information File sent via an email campaign.
2. **Survey Items:** Questions that are asked within the survey.
3. **Date:** Filter responses based on a Start and End date. This option is typically used for surveys that run over an extended period of time such as onboarding or exit surveys.

1. Click **Reports**, then **Snapshot**. Filters will work the same across all report types.&#x20;
2. Select a survey from the survey dropdown in the top left.
3. Click **Filters** in the top right corner. Available data will be displayed in the center column where you can choose between Demographic, Survey Item and Date. Once a field is selected, you will see the available filter options in the right column. Check the boxes for data you would like to filter, then click **OK**. Note: you can select multiple filters by clicking the Plus button.<br>
