Filters vs. the search bar
After a search returns, you'll see the Filters panel on the top left of the results. The Filters panel is another way to modify your search without typing it out in English. The search bar and the Filters panel edit the same underlying search, but they behave differently:
- Typing into the search bar re-reads your whole sentence with AI — best for starting a search or making a big change
- The filter panel edits criteria without AI reinterpreting your search — best for precise tweaks
When you submit a search, the Filters panel is automatically populated with the criteria in your search.
