Projects | Filter to see the progress recorded in the stories of particular projects. This is useful when you have Album-level Cards which pull together progress from several projects but you want to drill down to only see the results from particular projects |
Surveys | Filter to see the progress recorded from responses to particular surveys. Note: this is to filter by surveys, not survey campaigns. E.g. if you want to see the results from the PHQ9 survey from across multiple projects. |
Albums | Filter to see the progress recorded in stories from projects that are within particular albums. |

Date Posted | Filter to see results recorded in stories and survey responses that were added to Makerble within a specific date range. Date Posted uses the time and date that the data entered Makerble’s database. |
Waves | Filter to see the results recorded in stories and survey responses that have waves enabled for them and see results added on those particular waves. You can filter using both; Shared as well as Exclusive waves. |
Respondent Types | Filter to see the results recorded in stories and survey responses based on who has created the update and who the respondent is. |
