# Configuring Range Filter

The power user can add and remove range filters on existing properties in the data set in the Range Filters component.

- Data source controls: Select from the available data sources in the drop-down list, and then click Update data source to bind your selection to the component.

- Range Filters: Establish range filters for existing properties. When adding a range filter, you can set the following features:

  - The name of the property this filter is based on.
    Note: Property names are case sensitive. In addition, you need to know the exact name of the property for which you want to create a filter (you can consult the Endeca Attribute Settings component if you are unsure of a property's name). If you attempt to add a range filter based on a property that does not exist, when you return to the full page, you will see the following error message:
  - Values for both Min and Max to provide a range, or a single value to allow Greater Than or Less Than filtering by end users.
  - The type of range filter: Numeric or Date.
  - Enable Histogram provides the end user with an interactive histogram control. If Enable Histogram is not selected, the end user sees a slider bar with no associated histogram.
  - # Bins sets the number of bars to display in the histogram.

## Min and Max date-time format

Min and Max values must be given in milliseconds-since-epoch format. The Range Filter does not accept formatted date strings (such as "11/22/2009") or values in standard seconds-since-epoch format.
