Custom Filters:
Some tables from our economic surveys and programs allow you to filter the information in your table based on a particular data value. When you apply a custom filter to these data tables, the customization will be shown on the table display. If the variable you are filtering is considered a non-key dimension, the customization will also be reflected in the URL in your address bar using the format &nkd=[insert variable name]~[insert variable value].
For example, when &nkd=LFO~001 appears in the URL, it means the table is filtered to only show the data rows in your table where the legal form of organization code equals all establishments
https://data.census.gov/table/CBP2017.CB1700CBP?q=CB1700CBP&nkd=LFO~001
These customizations are also automatically reflected in the URL as you select non-key dimensions in the drop-down menus at the top of your map. For example, when &nkd=LFO~001 appears in the URL for a map, it means the drop down menu is set so that your map will only show data where legal form of organization code equals all establishments: https://data.census.gov/map/010XX00US$0400000/CBP2017/CB1700CBP/EMP?q=CB1700CBP&nkd=LFO~001&layer=VT_2017_040_00_PP_D1&loc=43.3751,-113.1138,z2.6270
