# Adding filters to dashboards based on custom fields

> Add custom-field filters to an Insights dashboard for Requirements or Test Sets and apply their values.

Filters narrow the data of an Insights dashboard to the custom-field values you choose.

## Prerequisites

An Insights dashboard based on custom fields. For details, see [Building Insights dashboards based on custom fields](https://docs.uipath.com/test-manager/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/building-insights-dashboards-based-on-custom-fields).

2. Select **Filters** &gt; **Add Filter**.

3. Add filters for your data object, in this example **Requirements**.

4. Expand the data object (**Requirements**) and expand **Custom Field Filters**.
