The filter component lets users input values, which can then be used with other components. In a Space, the filter component is commonly used to filter multiple tables on a single criteria -- unlike a search box in a table, which only applies to that table.

Ex: You add a filter component called “Company Name” that filters the Employees, Orders, and Inventory tables in your Space to find records for a specific company.
