the quick way:

use a text input tool on a new canvas. put a value of 1 inside (or something). convert it to a macro input.

the schematically consistent  way -

put a browse tool after your filter tool

run your workflow

copy the contents of your browse tool into a text input tool on a new canvas

turn that into a macro input.
