Hi, I need to filter a channel list query by multiple metadata\_keys via query params – is this possible? Or is it only possible to use one metadata\_key per query? Thanks, Patrick ---

@pjack3191 Thanks for your inquiry. Please refer to this documentation [https://docs.sendbird.com/javascript/user\_channel\_metadata#3\_channel\_metadata](https://docs.sendbird.com/javascript/user_channel_metadata#3_channel_metadata) ---

Hi @eric.kim , I’m referring to the channel list query, which allows you to filter by metadata\_key. The documentation doesn’t suggest any solution to filtering by more than one key, which is why I ask. This functionality would be very useful, as we have several metadata\_keys we would like to filter by, sometimes more than one at a time. Thanks, Patrick ---

Hello @eric.kim! Are there any updates on this? We also looking for a way to filter the user channel’s list with multiple metadata keys (with exact match) in Chats Platform API. Thanks ---

@Volo Thank you for your patience. Could you check if this document is helpful? [How to filter channel using custom-type - External.pdf](https://community.sendbird.com/uploads/short-url/9rJi0Y3FmQYgJjR7FiSXtHqrgy0.pdf) (204.2 KB) ---

@eric.kim hello Thanx for sharing examples of using custom-channel-tyles to filter channels Can you confirm please that using channel metadata for filtering my multiple metadata keys is impossible in this case? ---

@eric.kim this is something we would also like to know as filtering by multiple metadata keys would be really valuable. Don’t see anything when looking in [Group channel | Chat Platform API | Sendbird Docs](https://sendbird.com/docs/chat/v3/platform-api/guides/group-channel). Thanks for your assistance. ---

@eric.kim Hello, when you see the document you provided, I don’t think it’s possible to query my multiple custom types right? Why are you answering something completely irrelevant of what people are asking? Filtering my multiple metadata\_keys or custom types? Either one doesn’t seem to support filtering on multiple values at once. ---

Any update regarding the feature of filtering channels by multiple metadata keys ?
