Is there a way to copy and paste a list of values into a filter or do i have to manually tick and or write them in

Hi Anthony, There is no simple or out of the box way (e.g copy/pasting) how to insert multiple values into an attribute filter. It would be possible though using our UI SDK: https://sdk.gooddata.com/gooddata-ui/docs/attribute_filter_component.html

Another option which comes to my mind - If your values can be grouped under a parent attribute, you can filter by this parent attribute. This allows you to select a broader category instead of ticking each individual value. For example, if you are filtering by products, you can use a product category as the parent attribute to filter groups of products at once. Of course, this would require some additional implementation on your end.
In case you cannot do it directly in your database or data source, you can use the SQL dataset to define a new column using a SQL statement, such as a CASE statement.
