Update a Filter Preset

Update a filter preset's name, description, or saved filter selection. All three changes depend on the same permission: Members can update only the presets they created; Manager and Admin can update any visible preset. See Permissions for details.

Actions menu visibility

The actions menu only appears on presets you have permission to modify. If the menu does not appear on a preset, you cannot edit or delete that preset.

Update the Saved Filter Selection

When a preset is applied and you change the datastore or tag selection in the filter bar, two controls appear next to the Saved Filters label:

Control Behavior When visible
Update preset Updates the selected preset with the current filter selection. Only if you have permission to edit the preset.
Reset to saved preset Discards your changes and re-applies the preset's saved filters. Always visible while there are unsaved changes. No edit permission required.

If you do not have permission to edit a preset, the Update preset control is hidden. You can still apply local filter changes for your own view, or use Reset to saved preset to revert them.

Update the preset with current filter changes

Step 1: Change the datastore or tag selection in the filter bar. The Update preset and Reset to saved preset icons appear next to Saved Filters.
