# Interface AdvancedFilter

public interface AdvancedFilter

### Advanced Filtering

Isomorphic `DataSources` provide an advanced filtering mechanism for searching data, including a wide range of builtin `search-operators`, which allow searching via simple comparisons like `equals` and `contains` and more complex checks, like `equalsOtherField` and `regex`. You can also add entirely custom search-operators, via DataSource method `addSearchOperator()`.

For a full list of operators, see `OperatorId`.
