List of sequences filtered out

[ChloeD93 (Chloe Douglas)]

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to export a list of features that get filtered in the feature-table filter-features command? I am filtering features that are not present in a minimum number of my samples, and was wondering if there a way to easily generate a list of the filtered featurest? or do I need to manually compare the outputs from the table pre and post filtering?

Thank you

Hi @ChloeD93,
Good question! There is not a direct way to see what was filtered, but what you can do is really simple.

1. Just re-run the filter command again but exclude your search terms instead of using include (or vice versa) to produce a new table
2. Use feature-table summarize to get a list of features in that table.

I hope that helps!
