# Manage filters

Once you have created a **custom filter** it will remain saved to the **dashboard** until removed. Add as many filters as necessary to achieve your ideal data view.

Here two custom filters are being applied along with the standard **user** and **date** filters.

Hover over the filter to edit the custom filters. From here, you can toggle them on and off by enabling and **disabling** the filters. Ultimately, you can choose to **delete** a filter from this view as well.

A disabled filter will look like this:
