Filters Panel vs Columns/Rows Panel in Zendesk Explore

Understand the difference between filtering by an attribute in the Filters panel and the Columns or Rows panel in Zendesk Explore.

What is the difference between filtering by an attribute in the Filters panel and the Columns or Rows panel in Zendesk Explore?

The main difference lies in whether the attribute appears in the report visualization. Filtering by an attribute in the Filters panel allows you to control the results without adding the attribute to the visualization, keeping your report clean.

On the other hand, filtering by an attribute in the Columns or Rows panel means the attribute will appear in the report visualization. This method is useful if you want to narrow down results by an attribute that is already part of your report's visual structure.
