I have a table of count distinct. I want to filter this column of distinct count to anything more than 1. How should I do it?

If this column is not numeric, then need to create a new calculated field

```auto
distinct_count({column)

```

Then you should be able to add the filter on this field for values greater than 1

If it is numeric you can use the field well to change the way the field is aggregated. See here:
