You can add two types of interactive inputs:

* *Options list* - Filters content based on one or more specified options. The dropdown menu is dynamically populated with the results of a terms aggregation. For example, use the options list on the sample flight dashboard when you want to filter the data by origin city and destination city.

==== Controls options

Configure the settings that apply to the interactive inputs on a dashboard.

. Click *Options*, then configure the following:

* *Update {kib} filters on each change* — When selected, all interactive inputs create filters that refresh the dashboard. When unselected, {kib} filters are created only when you click *Apply changes*.

* *Use time filter* &mdash; When selected, the aggregations that generate the options list and time range are connected to the <<set-time-filter,time filter>>.

* *Pin filters to global state* &mdash; When selected, all filters created by interacting with the inputs are automatically pinned.

. Click *Update*.
