If you ever need to filter within [Buffers](https://help.synatic.com/en/collections/2698551-buffers) you can use the Filter feature available within the buffer.

A typical example for this is if you want to find a specific record, or a set of records or merely want to order by a certain field.

To do this, navigate to your **Buffer** and click on the Values button listed at the top.

You should be presented with all the records within your buffer. From here, you can merely click the **Filter** button, and add a rule to filter out the data you are looking for. You can also Order (sort) by a specific field within your results. Thereafter, click “Query Values”.
