The condition builder options allow you to create and use dynamically predefined values for the specified types of columns, fields, tables, or condition operators.

The main use case of this functionality is filtering by date and time. The options facilitate filtering by using predefined values, such as "Yesterday", "Last Week", "Next Month" and others.

In the URL, options are displayed as opt:{option_id}.
