The `filters` section defines the global filters added to a global filter panel widget, which is available in the dashboard designer.

```nolang
"filters": [
    {
        "label": "Account.Type",
        "fields": [
            "Account.Type"
        ],
        "operator": "in",
        "locked": false,
        "dataset": {
            "name": "opportunity"
        },
        "value": [
            "Customer"
        ]

  The `filters` key defines all global filters included in the dashboard. It contains a separate node, with configurable properties, for each global filter. Global filters apply to all layouts, but you can specify whether each widget applies the global filters.
