Context filter is a type of filter which is used to filter the report and create a temporary table.

For example, let’s say you want a report to show data of 2019 only and then want to apply further filters on 2019 data. In that case, we can create the content filter on the date and then apply others. This context filter will create a temp table with data of 2019.
