Filtering results by their properties in Media Monitoring

Filters let you narrow down search results in your search queries and widgets.

When you create a search query or a widget, you can use filters to narrow down search results to get the most relevant data. There are several filters available in Media Monitoring that are based on mention properties.

To filter your mentions, go to Monitoring -> Projects, open your desired project and select a query you want to filter. You will find all the options on the left side of the screen:
