In Tasklist, you can create and select filters. You can use these filters to create lists of tasks, sorted by specified criteria. To create a filter, select Create a Filter. You will then see a screen as depicted in the above image. You have several options to configure your filter:

• General - Specify the name and description of the filter as well as assigning a color. Assign a priority to determine the order in which the filters are displayed on the dashboard. You can choose to have the filter automatically refresh the filter results by selecting the checkbox Auto-Refresh.The default refresh interval is 10 seconds.
• Permissions - Specify which users or groups can see the filter. You can set the filter as globally accessible by selecting the checkbox Accessible by all users. A permission that is set here is equivalent to a READ permission which can also be set in Camunda Admin. In case you want to assign other permissions, you can do so in the Authorizations tab in Camunda Admin.
• Criteria - Specify which tasks will be displayed when selecting the filter. A key and a value must be inserted. There are various keys which can be selected from the categories Process Instance (ID, Business Key), Process Definition (ID, Key, Name), Case Instance (ID, Business Key), Case Definition (ID, Key, Name), Other (Process Instance state, Activity instance ID, Execution ID), User/Group (Assignee, Owner, Candidate User or Group, Involved user, Unassigned, Delegation State), Task (Definition Key, Name, Description, Priority) and Dates (Created date, Due date, Follow up date). Keys marked with a * accept expressions as value.
• Variables - Specify which variables are displayed in the filter results section of the dashboard. Setting variables here has no influence on which tasks are displayed. To set the variables, you need to insert a Name, which is the coded name of the variable, and a Label, which defines what the variable will be named in the filter results.

Expressions in Filters

Several of the filter criteria accept expressions as values. These expressions are written in JUEL. In filters which are related to times and dates, you can use the dateTime class, which returns a Joda-Time DateTime object.
