* *Options list* — Filters content based on one or more specified options. The dropdown menu is dynamically populated with the results of a terms aggregation. For example, use the options list on the sample flight dashboard when you want to filter the data by origin city and destination city.
* *Range slider* — Filters data within a specified range of numbers. The minimum and maximum values are dynamically populated with the results of a min and max aggregation. For example, use the range slider when you want to filter the sample flight dashboard by a specific average ticket price.
Configure the settings that apply to the interactive inputs on a dashboard.
. Click *Options*, then configure the following:
* *Update {kib} filters on each change* — When selected, all interactive inputs create filters that refresh the dashboard. When unselected, {kib} filters are created only when you click *Apply changes*.
* *Use time filter* — When selected, the aggregations that generate the options list and time range are connected to the <<set-time-filter,time filter>>.
* *Pin filters to global state* — When selected, all filters created by interacting with the inputs are automatically pinned.
