No mate, that’s not possible as it’s coming directly from the table level. @pramn

Hi @pramn 

 

Yes, it is possible to limit the values users can see in Platform Analytics filters.

There are two ways to achieve this:

Option 1: Add a Condition Directly on the Filter (Easy Method)
Open your Dashboard.
Edit the Interactive Filter.
Add a filter condition.

Result: Users will only see records that match the condition.

Option 2: Use a Breakdown Source (Recommended Method)
Create a Breakdown Source on the required table (for example, sys_user).
Add conditions to limit the records.


Result: Only the users returned by the Breakdown Source will appear in the filter list.


Note: Identify Middleware field original table (sys_choice)

In the filter's Configuration panel did you try Filter source > Configure values or Default values.
