"...
The filters query string parameter restricts the data returned from
your request to the Analytics servers. When you use the filters
parameter, you supply a dimension or metric you want to filter,
followed by the filter expression. For example, the following feed
query requests ga:pageviews and ga:browser from profile 12134, where
the ga:browser dimension starts with the string Firefox:
https://www.google.com/analytics/feeds/data?ids=ga:12134&dimensions=ga:browser&metrics=ga:pageviews&filters=ga:browser%3D~%5EFirefox&start-date=2007-01-01&end-date=2007-12-31

Google Analytics filters (in the Web UI) affect the data as it is
collected and placed into the database. The Google Analytics API lets
you extract that data AFTER it's been collected. The "filters" you use
with the API is basically just a search query you use to see only
specific data.
