Filtering on a tag field for multiple tags

[Oscar Chen]

Hello!

I'm building a database and would like to build a view that filters a "Tag" field for multiple values.

Concretely, I'm trying to build a "In Development" view that filters for all database entries where the "Status" tag field has any of the following values: 

• On deck for brainstorming
• Proposal drafting
• In review / on deck for debate

It looks like there isn't a good way of doing that in the current UI -- I can only select on value for the tag field when building a filter.

Am I missing something, or does this feature still not exist? It's quite a basic feature for a database product that is attempting to replicate Notion/Coda's database features, I think.

Hi, I'm from the Databases team! If I'm understanding your question correctly, we don't currently provide the ability to select multiple values for a field when building a filter, but you can add multiple filters for the same field with the "any" condition. 

I believe this kind of setup will achieve your desired outcome:

That's very limiting for a "database". You have to have all "ands" or all "ors" in your filter. I have a status column, and a products column. I want a filter for status is pending and products contains "product 1 or product 4 or product 6", but i can't do that.

HI there,

When you have a column with tags, you can actually filter multiple tags, however this looks like a defect. 

You can select the Column Header, then 'is' defaults and can't be changed. A work around is to click on the arrow on the right hand side and this then let's you select 'contains' to add multiple tags.

You then cannot select a tag from that column, its a free text field instead of a tag field. Will this be fixed?
