# Filetering and sorting

To help you find the information you need, the Dashboard offers two filtering methods:

## **Location filtering**

Select a location from the Locations panel on the left to display only the sensors assigned to that location and its sublocations. [Locations can be fully managed](https://docs.efento.io/efento-cloud/advanced/locations) by users with **Administrator** or **Manager** permission levels.

## Dashboard filters

Use the filter tools to narrow results within the selected location. You can:

* Search by **Sensor name** or **Serial number**
* Sort by any column (Name / Serial number, Location, Status, Measured)
* Use the **Filters** button (top right) to filter sensors by type (e.g., temperature, humidity, pressure) or status (Disabled, OK, Lost, Battery, Alarm, No license, Archived)

By default, all sensors except archived ones are shown. To reset filters, clear the search field or refresh the page.
