  2. Click More Options in top right of the filter.

  5. Click Cancel.

  6. Add a Text Field.

  7. Enter the following text, replacing [Selector_Key] with the Selector Key value you copied above:

    Copy 
    {&CURRENTSELECTION:[Selector_Key]&}

    For example, if your selector key is W00F95E1A48B4436ABCE8FB0DC94CB01D, you should enter the following:

    Copy 
    {&CURRENTSELECTION:W00F95E1A48B4436ABCE8FB0DC94CB01D&}
