Creates a user filter category for record list.

This function creates a Facet type object, and is used within a Record Type Object

Options for the user filter are created with the a!recordFilterListOption() function. The most popular use of a!recordFilterList() is to generate filter options instead of manually writing them. See the Expression-Based User Filters page for common uses.

Syntax

a!recordFilterList( name, options, defaultOption, isVisible )

• name (Text): The name of the user filter that displays to end users.
• options (FacetOption Array): The options that users can select from for a given user filter.
• defaultOption (Text): Determines which, if any, filter option is applied when a record list first loads.
• isVisible (Boolean): Determines whether the filter is visible to the user at runtime. Default is true.
• allowMultipleSelections (Boolean): Determines whether the filter allows the user to select multiple options or a single option. Default is true.

Returns

Facet

Notes

• Since users can save filter values, try to use expressions that rarely change the options available. If users save an option that is not available the next time they load the record, a warning message will display and the user may need to update their saved filter.
