Filter the records

Hi,
I have a read-only grid and corresponding filters on that record-type.
On the site, when I select a filter, then the records are filtered based on that on the same page.

There is no direct way to do that across pages of a site.

Record filters are not accessible so you can not store the filter settings somehow. Can you elaborate your use case? In many cases it is possible to support a specific requirement in a different way.

There is a way to do this, but it is not easy and I recommend it only to an experienced Appian designer.

A few years ago I implemented some components which allow a user to manage his filter configurations. You could use this app to get started.

Can you please tell if there is any way where we can filter all the pages based on the one column values in a record type of a site?

Hello [mention:b76d2763698d4903be0a9d84166776d9:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05], 

You can achieve this as a tab format in a single page instead of going for multiple pages in site.

If you are willing to do this, create a wrapper interface with required no of card layouts which are clickable links. Create a child interfaces for each page. Call these child interfaces on click of the specific tab which you are pointing to.

This would work,
