Adding Filters to Subscriptions

You can add filters to your subscriptions so that they only receive information when the criteria you enter is met.

Note:

You cannot filter child records.

To add a filter to a subscription:

  1. On the Registered Products tab, click the name of the product containing the subscription you want to customize.
  2. Click the name of the subscription you want to edit in the Subscriptions related list.
  3. Click Right Arrow Filters to expand the Filters section.
  4. Click Add.
  5. Enter the message key on which to apply the filter.
    Note:

    This must match the Key on the corresponding node in the publication to which this subscription relates.

  6. Select the operator you want for the filter.
  7. Enter the value on which to filter.
  8. Repeat the last four steps until you have added the filters that you want.
  9. [Optional] Specify filter logic:
    1. Click Add Filter Logic.
    2. Enter the logic that you want to connect each filter with in the box that appears. For example, for the subscription to receive the information with:
      • 1 AND 2 — Filters 1 and 2 must evaluate to true
      • 1 OR 2 — Filter 1 or 2 must evaluate to true
      • 1 AND NOT(2) — Filter 1 must evaluate to true and filter 2 must evaluate to false
    Note:

    You do not need to add filter logic if you want the default AND filter logic.

    Each successive connector must be the same or contained within brackets. For example, you can enter 1 AND (2 OR 3), but not 1 AND 2 OR 3.

  10. Click Save.
Note:

If you want to create a filter based on a date time in the message, ensure you specify it in both GMT and JSON format.

For example, if you want to specify 4:30PM (16:30hrs) on the 31st January 2017 and you are located in a timezone that is two hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time, You would specify:

2017-01-31T14:30:00.000+0000.
