Filtering

Filter table data with 18 operators, raw SQL, and saved presets

Filtering

Press Cmd+F while viewing a table to open the filter panel. Type a raw SQL WHERE clause and press Enter to filter. Raw SQL is the default mode.

Each row has a column picker, operator, value field, and +/− buttons. Multiple rows combine with AND or OR (toggle in the header). Click Apply or press Enter to activate. Click Unset to clear all.

When you reopen a table, TablePro restores the filter you last applied to it, including after you quit and relaunch. If you clear the filter with Unset or remove its conditions with −, reopening the table shows it unfiltered. Filters are remembered per connection. Tables with active filters open in a new tab when you click another table.

Operators

18 operators with SQL symbols shown inline: =, !=, LIKE %..%, NOT LIKE %..%, LIKE ..%, LIKE %.., >, >=, <, <=, IS NULL, IS NOT NULL, IS EMPTY, IS NOT EMPTY, IN (..), NOT IN (..), BETWEEN, ~ (regex).

BETWEEN shows two value fields. IN/NOT IN takes comma-separated values.

Raw SQL

The default mode. Type any WHERE condition directly:

created_at > NOW() - INTERVAL 7 DAY

price * quantity > 1000

As you type, autocomplete suggests the table’s columns and SQL keywords at every position in the expression, including after AND and OR. Use the arrow keys to pick a suggestion and Tab or Return to insert it.

To switch a row to column mode, select a column from the picker.

Raw SQL is injected directly into the WHERE clause. Ensure syntax matches your database type.

Presets

Save and load filter configurations via the ⋯ menu in the header.

Action	How

Settings

⋯ > Filter Settings to configure:

Setting	Options
Default Column	Raw SQL, Primary Key, Any Column
Default Operator	Equal, Contains
Panel State	Always Hide, Always Show, Restore Last Filter

Panel State controls what happens when you reopen a table. Restore Last Filter (the default) brings back the filter you last applied. Always Hide reopens tables unfiltered with the panel closed. Always Show keeps the filter panel visible even when no filter is set.
