Context filters are used to apply context on the data under analysis.

By applying a context we set a perspective according to which we can see the charts and graphs.

For example, we have sales data of an electronic store and we want to conduct our analysis only for the corporate sector or segment.

To do this, we have to apply a context filter on our Tableau sheet. Once we add the context for the Corporate segment from the Add to context option, all the charts present on the sheet will only show data relevant to the Corporate segment.

In this way, we can apply a context to our analysis in Tableau.
