Overview

There are several pages in the Events platform where you can “save your view”.
What this essentially means is any filters you apply to a page to change your “view” can be saved, so you don’t have to apply those filters every time you visit the page.
This “saved views” feature is available in the following pages: Events, Rooms, Resources, Organizations, and Buildings.

Use Case

Some users only view specific events or rooms. For example, the head of the Arts department may only be interested in events put on by the departments of Arts & Art History. In order to avoid having to apply the same filters each time you enter the events or rooms tabs, you can save and access “saved views”.

How To Save a View

There are two ways to save a view: while creating the filter or at any point after a filter has been applied.

While Creating Filter

STEP 1: Select “Filter”.

STEP 2:

Select “+ Add Filter” to define the filters you wish to apply to this page view.
You can add multiple filters.

STEP 3: Once the filter(s) have been set, click “Save As” in the bottom left.

STEP 4: Input a name for your filter and click “Save”.

After Saving Filter

STEP 1: Once you have added filter(s) to any of the applicable page, click “Saved Views” in the upper right-hand corner.

STEP 2: Select “Save Current View”.

STEP 3: Input a name for the view you wish to save and then click “Save”.

Accessing Saved Views

You can access your saved views in two places:

All Saved Views are accessible by clicking “Saved Views” on the page where you created them.
Events and Rooms Saved Views are also accessible from the Events homepage under the “Saved Views” header on the right-hand side of the screen.
