# How to Filter Envelopes

This document explains how to use filters in Mailbox to find envelopes faster.

Use filters in **Mailbox** to find envelopes faster by status, date, sender, template, and searchable template fields. Save the filters you use often to apply them again in one click.

### Use built-in filters

Filter by these standard parameters:

* status
* period
* sender
* template

#### Filter by status

{% columns %}
{% column width="33.33333333333333%" %}

* Waiting for you
* On approval
* Pending
* Completed
* Cancelled
* Expired
  {% endcolumn %}

{% column width="66.66666666666669%" %}

#### Filter by template

Filter by the template used to create the envelope. The **Template** picker shows templates used by envelopes currently visible in your mailbox list.

{% hint style="info" %}
When you search in **Template**, the modal shows up to **25** templates.
{% endhint %}

### Search by subject or envelope UUID

Use the search box to find an envelope by **subject** or **envelope UUID**.
