Overview

Coursedog’s Curriculum Management product feeds course, program, department, and instructor data into your catalog in real time. In order to ensure that the correct subset of this data is displayed in each catalog, Coursedog provides users with the ability to define filters for each data type on a catalog-by-catalog basis.

How to Create a Catalog Filter

Step 1: 

• Navigate to the “Catalogs” tab.

• PATH: Catalog > Settings > Catalogs

Step 2: 

• Select the catalog for which you wish to define filters.

• This will open the “Edit Catalog” modal.

Step 3: Click the “EDIT FILTERS” button for the data type of your choice.

Step 4: 

• Define the logic that the filter should use to determine whether or not the relevant data point should be included.

• If your institution is using configurable course and program search, we do not recommend using OR logic to connect filters, as that contradicts the configurable search options. 

• These fields are pulled directly from the associated data type’s template in Curriculum Management.

• In order for the filters to work properly, ensure that the text matches exactly (including capitalization).

Step 5: 

• Hit “APPLY FILTER” in the bottom right of the modal.

• You will then be able to view the applied filters from the Edit Catalog modal.
