 # Filter and view subscriptions
 
 When you view subscriptions on the Subscriptions page, you see a list of subscriptions that you have access to. Two filters affect how you view the list of subscriptions on the Subscriptions page:
 
-- Global subscription filter
-- Subscriptions list filter
+- **Portal setting** subscription filter
+- **Subscriptions** list filter
 
 Subscriptions are shown for the directory that you're signed in to. If you have access to multiple directories, you can switch directories to view subscriptions for each directory.

-The global subscription filter is the default subscriptions filter. You access it from the filter in the top-left area of the Subscriptions page and then you select a link labeled **global subscriptions filter**. You use the global subscription filter to view every subscription that you have access to with the **Select all** option.
+The portal setting filter is the default subscriptions filter.
