# Filter rows — visual WHERE builder, no upload

> Build row filters visually with AND/OR conditions — no SQL — preview the subset, and export matching rows. Runs in your browser with no upload.

Build filters visually with AND/OR conditions — no SQL required — preview the matching subset, and export just those rows. The filtering happens on your device, so the file isn't uploaded.

Often you only need part of a dataset — active accounts, last quarter, one region. A visual filter gets you there without SQL: add conditions, group them, and export the subset.

When the logic gets complex, switch to the SQL query tool; to split rather than subset, use Split export.

## How to

1. **Add a file.** Drop the CSV or table to filter.
2. **Build conditions.** Add AND/OR rules on any column without writing SQL.
3. **Preview.** See the matching subset update live.
4. **Export.** Download the filtered rows.

## FAQ

### Can I filter without knowing SQL?

Yes. Add conditions per column with a visual builder and combine them with AND/OR — no query language needed.

### Can I combine multiple conditions?

Yes — stack several rules and group them with AND/OR to express things like 'status = active and amount > 100'.

### Is my data uploaded to filter it?

No. Filtering runs in your browser, so the rows stay on your device.
