# Managing custom structured views

> Create, switch, update, rename, delete, clone, and reset custom structured views for your test sets.

There are two types of views: the **Default** view (the flat view) and the custom structured views (created by users via grouping and filtering). In addition, you can keep the structured custom views that you create private or share them with other project members by making them public.

**Public** views can be edited by other users.

## Create custom structured views

Save a combination of grouping and filtering criteria as a named custom view so you can quickly return to the same filtered perspective without reconfiguring the filters each time.

1. Go to the desired test object section (that is, **Requirements**, **Test Cases**, **Test Sets**).

2. Apply the available grouping and filtering criteria.
3. To save you custom structured view, go to the end of the filter bar, expand the **Views** menu, and select **Save new view**.
4. In the **Save new view** window, give your view a name (in the **Label** field) and decide whether to keep the new view private or set it to **Public** for other users to access and edit. Select **Save** to confirm changes.

## Switch between views

Switch between the default flat view and any custom structured view to change the grouping and filtering applied to the object list.

1. Identify the upper, left-hand corner of the object screen (**Requirements**, **Test Cases**, **Test Sets**).
2. Expand the menu, and select the **Default** view or a custom structured view.

## Update the filters of custom structured views

Modify the grouping or filtering criteria of an existing custom structured view and save the changes so the view reflects an updated set of filters.

1. Identify the upper, left-hand corner of the object screen (**Requirements**, **Test Cases**, **Test Sets**).
2. Expand the menu and select a custom structured view.
3. Update the filtering criteria.
4. To save your changes, go to the end of the filter bar, expand the **Views**menu, and select **Save current view**.
5. In the **Save current view** window, give your view a name (in the **Label** field) and decide whether to keep the new view private or set it to **Public** for other users to access and edit. Select **Save** to confirm changes.

## Update the name or the visibility of custom structured views

Rename a custom structured view or change its visibility between private and public to control which project members can access it.

1. Identify the upper, left-hand corner of the object screen (**Requirements**, **Test Cases**, **Test Sets**).
2. Expand the menu and select **Manage views**.
3. To edit a private view, select **My views**. To edit a public view, select **Shared views**.
4. Identify the view you want to edit, and select the pencil icon.
5. In the **Edit view** window, update the name and the visibility.
6. Select **Save**.

## Delete custom structured views

Permanently remove a custom structured view that is no longer needed from either your private or shared views collection.

1. Identify the upper, left-hand corner of the object screen (**Requirements**, **Test Cases**, **Test Sets**).
2. Expand the menu and select **Manage views**.
3. To delete a private view, select **My views**. To delete a public view, select **Shared views**.
4. Identify the view you want to delete, open the context menu for the three vertical-dot icon, and select **Delete**.

## Perform other operations (clone, make public or private) on custom structured views

Clone, make public, or make private a custom structured view to reuse its configuration or adjust who can see it in your project.

1. Identify the upper, left-hand corner of the object screen (**Requirements**, **Test Cases**, **Test Sets**).
2. Expand the menu and select **Manage views**.
3. To manage a private view, select **My views**. To manage a public view, select **Shared views**.
4. Identify the view of interest, open the context menu for the three vertical-dot icon, and select the operation you want to perform: **Make public**, **Make private**, **Clone view**.

## Clear all the filters applied onto custom structured views

Reset all active filters on a custom structured view to return to an unfiltered state while keeping the view definition intact.

1. Identify the upper, left-hand corner of the object screen (**Requirements**, **Test Cases**, **Test Sets**).
2. Expand the menu and select a custom structured view.
3. On the filter bar, select **Reset**.

## Result

The filters are saved as a view and applied to the **Test Sets** page.
