Table View Selector
The Table View Selector component lets users switch between named, predefined filters on a table, such as "My Records" or "Overdue" - instead of building a filter from scratch every time. Each named view is defined once in the designer and applied with a single click. This component must be used inside a Data Table Context - it has nothing to select between otherwise.
If you add this component outside a Data Table Context, the designer shows a "View: Default" placeholder in its place and flags a validation error, rather than the real view list.
See Filtering for a worked example of setting up filters end to end.
Properties
The following properties are available to configure the behavior of the component from the form editor (this is in addition to common properties).
Common
Filters object[]
The list of named views to offer, managed as a draggable, reorderable list - dragging an item changes where its view sits in the selector. Clicking a filter's settings icon opens a Configure Filter dialog with:
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
Title (name) | The label shown for this view |
| Tooltip | Optional hover text |
| Permissions | Optional permission names restricting who sees this view |
| Query builder | The visual query builder used to build the filter expression applied when this view is selected, with an accompanying expression viewer and a Variables tab documenting the data and globalState values available to it |
A new Table View Selector always starts with one default filter ("Default", no expression, showing all records) so the component has something to display even before you configure it.
Show Icon boolean
Displays a layout icon next to the selected view's label.
