MySQL UI gives you three tools to narrow down what you see in the data view: sorting by column, full-text search, and column filters. You can use all three at the same time, and they apply instantly without reloading the page.

Sorting

Click any column header to sort the table by that column. Clicking the same header cycles through three states:
  1. Ascending (↑) — lowest to highest, A to Z, oldest to newest
  2. Descending (↓) — highest to lowest, Z to A, newest to oldest
  3. No sort — returns to the default order
Only one column can be sorted at a time. Sorting a new column removes the previous sort. Type in the Search across text columns… bar in the toolbar and press Enter to search. MySQL UI scans all text-based columns in the table and returns rows that contain your search term in any of them. To clear an active search, click the × button that appears inside the search bar, or delete the text and press Enter.

Filters

Filters let you build precise conditions on any column. Click the Filters button in the toolbar to open the filter dialog.

Adding a filter

  1. Click Add Filter in the dialog.
  2. Choose a column from the first dropdown.
  3. Choose an operator from the second dropdown.
  4. Enter a value in the text field (not required for IS NULL and IS NOT NULL).
  5. Repeat to add more filters, then click Apply Filters.
The available operators are:
OperatorMeaning
=Exactly equals
!=Does not equal
>Greater than
<Less than
>=Greater than or equal to
<=Less than or equal to
LIKEContains (use % as a wildcard)
NOT LIKEDoes not contain
IS NULLField is empty / null
IS NOT NULLField has any value
INMatches any value in a comma-separated list

Managing active filters

Active filters appear as badges below the toolbar, showing the column, operator, and value for each condition. To remove a single filter, click the × on its badge. To remove all filters at once, click Clear all at the end of the badge row. The Filters button also shows a count badge (for example, Filters 2) so you can see at a glance how many conditions are active.
Combine multiple filters to answer questions like “show me all orders where status = ‘pending’ AND total >= 100” without writing any SQL. Add one filter per condition and click Apply Filters to see the results immediately.
