Hi there, 


I have a number of reports where I need to manually filter for the products I am interested in, often there are more than 10 which used to exceed the number of allowable conditions. 

To combat this, I used the 'in list' regex syntax to list out all the variables I needed: e.g. ga:productName[]Apples|Bananas|Pears; however, I am now getting an error to say this is an invalid value for filters parameters.


When I manipulate this to become a segment, the syntax works; however, does not provide the result I need, as if a user purchased another product in the same session this will show in the results as well.


Has anyone else experienced this issue?


It looks like I can now just add ga:productName== before each condition but this will require me to update existing reports already used by the business, and makes the conditions significantly longer.
