Feature request: Filtering in Embedded Database

This post was last updated for 182 days ago, and the information may already be changed

Hi there,

Is there a way to filter rows in an embedded block of the database?

Example

For example, if we have the following tables, how can I have an embedded view of books only written by Liu Cixin?

If I try to embed the Books database, I see all books, but I only want the last 2 books

How can I achieve this result? (for 100+ authors)

Thanks and regards,

Jeremy

You only need to use two feature:
1. Directly copy the database. Currently, the default copying of the database is shallow copying, which means it points to the same data source.
2. Create a new view and apply filtering within this new view.
For database, you don't need to use the embedded block feature.

Sorry, I can see how my request is badly phrased.

Allow me to start a new thread with a better example.

Yes, of course I see the filter feature.

What if there are 100 authors, and you'd like (1) duplicate 100+ tables for 100+ authors, (2) without affecting the original table?
