How to Clear filter in Pivot Table in Excel
Clear filter in Pivot Table in Excel, follow these steps:
- Select the PivotTable that you want to clear filter to.
- Click on the drop-down arrow for the filter you want to clear in the pivot table.

How to Clear filter in Pivot Table Using Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++
Clear filter in Pivot Table using Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++. Please see the following sample code.
- Set the data and create a PivotTable based on it.
- Add a filter on the row field of the pivot table.
- Save the workbook in output XLSX format. After executing the example code, a pivot table with top10 filter is added to the worksheet.
- Clear the filter on a specific pivotfield. After executing the code to clear the filter, the filter on the specific pivotfield will be cleared. Please check the output XLSX.
