Hi, I'm trying to create filters for columns whose data contains pipes in the text, such as "Admin|ABC|Department". "Create from column values" splits all the strings on the pipes in the column data. I've tried entering the values manually, using a backslash to try to escape the pipe characters in the text strings, but that didn't work.
How can I create filters using terms that contain pipes in the strings?

Hi floppysheep,
Thank you for your purchase.
Can you please try to use " / " sign. if it is a option for you ofcourse.
For example:
Admin/ABC/Department to be the value in the cell.
Kind Regards,

Thanks. I'd prefer to keep the pipes, if possible, but if there's no way to do that, then I'll use slashes instead.
