# Recordings Filter and Search

> How to use advanced filters and search within your call recordings in BuildBetter.

BuildBetter's recordings view offers advanced filtering and search options to help you quickly find the calls you need.

> **Info:** For general, workspace-wide search, see the [Universal Search](/Search/scope-and-filters) page. This page focuses on advanced search and filtering within your call recordings.

## Filtering Options

- Date Range

  Filter recordings by specific dates or custom ranges
- Participants

  Show only calls with selected people or groups
- Tags & Labels

  Filter by tags, labels, or custom metadata
- Meeting Type

  Filter by internal, external, recurring, or ad-hoc meetings
- Recording Status

  Show only completed, processing, or failed recordings
- Duration

  Filter by call length (e.g., short, long, custom)

## How to Use Filters

1. Go to \[Calls & Recordings]\(/Calls & Recordings/overview) in your workspace.
2. Use the filter panel to choose date, participants, tags, and more.
3. Apply multiple filters together for precise results (e.g., all sales calls in March with 'demo' tag).
4. Sort by date, duration, participant, or other fields to organize your view.

## Best Practices

- Use specific tags and consistent naming for easy filtering.
- Regularly review and clean up old or unused tags.
- Combine filters to quickly narrow down large call lists.

> **Warning:** Filtering and search options may vary based on your subscription plan and workspace permissions.
