# Filter Documents

The Filter functionality helps to filter the available documents by the selected category.

* Navigate to the platform homepage.
* The ***List All*** filter option gets applied to the documents by default.​
* As a result, all the available documents stored under the My Documents folder get listed (by default).      &#x20;

* Select a ***Document Category***. E.g., Folder category has been selected in the given image.
* The homepage displays only the documents/ folders based on the selected category. E.g., Only  available ***Folders*** get displayed since Folder is selected as filtering category option.
