I’m leaning towards Component level because it seems like that would make sense for individual charts, but I guess Page level could work too.

I’m a bit confused. I thought filters might apply at the Story level, but now I’m wondering if it’s really just the Page level.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think it mentioned that filters affect all components on the page. So, Page level seems right.

I think the filter is applied at the Page level, but I'm not completely sure. It feels like it could also be at the Component level.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Is the filter applied at the Calculation level, the Page level, the Component level, or the Story level? I'll have to think about this carefully.

Ah, I got it! The filter is applied at the Page level, so it will impact all the components on that particular page. That makes the most sense for this use case.

Okay, let me think this through. The question says the filter is used to filter data in the story, so I'm guessing it's applied at the Story level to affect all the pages.

I'm not entirely sure, but I believe the filter is applied at the Component level, so it would only affect a specific chart or table on the page.

Hmm, I think the filter is applied at the Page level, since that would make the most sense for filtering data across the entire story.

C) Component is the way to go. I want to be able to filter individual components separately, not apply the filter to the entire page.

I see your point, but applying the filter at the Page level ensures a consistent view of the data across all components.

D) Story makes the most sense to me. Filtering at the story level would allow the filter to apply to all pages, giving me a comprehensive view of the data.
