Insights Filters

Filter Reports

Filters allow you to refine Insights data about incidents, services, escalation policies, teams and custom fields. You can apply filters to each report by clicking at the top of the page next to the date range dropdown. This will open an editor where you can add, edit and remove filters.

Teams Filter Behavior

  • When you add a Teams filter, results for subsequently-added filter values will change to reflect objects associated with the selected Team(s). Example: If you add a Teams filter to return results for Team A, and then add a Services filter, you will only be able to select services associated with Team A.
  • If you add a Teams filter after adding another filter with a value not associated with that Team, the Teams filter will remove the value for the previous filter. Example: If you add a Services filter for Service B, and then you add a Teams filter for Team A (not associated with Service B), then it will remove Service B from the Services filter value.

Edit or Remove Filters

To edit or remove a filter:

  1. Click under the date range dropdown at the top of the page.
  2. Edit the available filters, or click to the right of a filter to remove it.
  3. Click Apply Filters in the bottom right of the editor.

Filter Limits

Each report has the following filter limits:

  • Service, Responder, and Escalation Policy Filters: 1000
  • Team Filter: 200

When the count of filtered objects goes over the limit, the list will grey out and you can no longer select/deselect individual objects. You will need to click Clear at the top of the filter list in order to select filters again.

If you think you will overshoot the limit, we recommend:

  1. Use the Team filter first to reduce the number of Escalation Policies/Services/Responders.
  2. Once the list is below 1000, you can deselect from there.

Share a Report

There are two ways to share Insights reports:

Share Button

Export CSV

📘

Export Size Limit

Depending on your pricing plan, there is a limit to the number of rows you can export.

If your exported report exactly matches the limit, it is likely that your data has been truncated. You can reference your report in the PagerDuty web app to see the total count (e.g., Total Incidents). We recommend adding filters, or adjusting the date range, to reduce results, and exporting in batches as needed.

Pricing PlanExport Limit
Professional, Business100,000 rows
Enterprise Incident Management, Digital Operations(legacy)250,000 rows

To export a report as a .csv file, click Export CSV to generate a file, which will keep the view and results based on your search and filter selections.
