This article will serve as a guide through the different options and functionalities that this feature has to offer.

Filtering
You can filter users using a basic search or a more detailed search. Both options let you filter by multiple value— please remember to separate them with or
, OR
.
Simple Search
A simple search is here to make your workflow faster and better optimized for your needs. By typing in your search bar you will be filtering users by their full name, search bar can also take in multiple search values.
Advanced Search
This one is for users with more technical knowledge! Advanced filtering will enable you to query users by multiple fields at once, either through UI or query writing. Each field can take multiple values, and each field can be combined with other fields. When building a query please be sure to separate keys with & symbol.
Filtering through UI will also generate a search query that will be located in the search field, you can edit this query for better workflow.
Ordering
By default, all records will be sorted by role, but you can also choose to sort them by name or job title. You can find the sorting button in the table header next to each attribute. Sorting can be combined with all actions on the user dashboard.
Adding new users
Adding new users can be done by clicking on the button, or by importing users through CSV.
