# Documents

The **Documents** tab allows users to navigate through the available document types hierarchy (under **Base Document** node)

**Create a VQL query on the fly**\
Click the desired node in the Vault Navigator to create a VQL query for the documents contents, placed in the VQL command input area without executing it. The query is created using the **Default Query Template** that you can modify in the **Options** dialog box.

**Filter**

Filtering is applied only to the document types already loaded in the grid. Filtering is not applied when expanding a document type, unless the filter is reapplied.
