Data Source Filtering

Data Source Filters are used to limit what Data is read into your App.

Data Source Filters are important when the amount of data is large, since a large amount of data read could impact the loading speed of your App. In many cases, you also would want to limit the data due to sensitivity - e.g. for a customer portal, only read the data belonging to the logged in customer.

A good principle with regards to Data Source Filtering: Only read the data you need in your App.

This topic gives you an overview of some ways of setting up filters on Data Sources.
