RUM - User Sessions - Any way to add a custom property directly to the initial user session filter dropdown?

Hi all,

So, this is a small question but is there any way to add a custom user action or session property to the main dropdown when filtering sessions in the session replay?

The normal way of doing it (filter > user action string/date/double property > (property name) > (property value select) is good but when searching for multiple different session properties in different filter combinations, it can become a lot more clicks than necessary. Especially when there are a lot of custom properties involved.

Has anyone found success in a "shortcut" of sorts so that a custom property such as "ProductType" for example, will be under the same dropdown as the built-in "User Tag" filter for example (rather than having to select user action property > ProductType)? Screenshot attached shows the main dropdown for reference that I'd like to add the property directly to.

Hello @Irvin_naylor01 not able to do it that way (UI), but I manage to do it with USQL.

Hi @DanielS Thanks for the response.

That makes sense, I haven't seen any way to do it through just the UI on its own. I do see that it can be done pretty quickly through the USQL query drop down like you said.

I'll see about putting in an RFE if it seems like there's no way to do it through the UI
