If I set a filter on a column, how can I clear that filter?

Hi @jonnyrask ,

 

you can clear your filter by clicking in the 3 dots and the x button after.

Hi @jonnyrask  - not sure what your use case is but you can always built different workflow stream from the tool before the filter that has 'unfiltered' data. If you share more details or be more specific, we can help.

I want to clear the filter in the Alteryx code, not done manually

So the workflow that is below will be run with the initial data?

correct, so the 'filter' stream will be having only 'filtered' data while the other stream where I built the formula will have all the data.

if you share your data/workflow than I can share more info or graphics.

another way is to bring the union tool and combine "True" and "False" streams:

If you created a filter using a Filter tool, simply removing the Filter tool and re-running the workflow will remove it. You can think of the tools as analytic processes that you are building onto one another. If you delete a tool, you no longer have that process in place.

 

If you filtered in the results window (by clicking on the three dots in the corner), you can click on the three bars and select Revert to Original.
