Share Saved Queries
Shared queries enable you to share your customized configurations with all users.

Note

Copying the shared query or clicking Mark Default (to make the query the page default) keeps the shared query in the user’s Saved queries list even if the shared query owner removes the share. Otherwise, the query will disappear from the users’ Saved queries list if the query owner removes the share.
