# Configure pinned scopes

[Pinned scopes](/navigate/pinned-scopes) define a set of consistent criteria for
users to select a subset of data. Scopes are used in several sections in Chronosphere
Observability Platform.

Click the **Pin scopes** box in a supported page to display the configured scopes.
To select a scope, click it.

## Create a pinned scope

To create a scope:

1. In the navigation menu, click **<Icon icon="shield-user" /> Go to Admin**
   and then select
   **Platform <span aria-label="and then">></span> Scope Configuration**.
2. Click **<Icon icon="plus" /> Create**.
3. Add values to the following fields:
   * **Scope category name**: A name by which to group your filters. For
     example, the category `Environment` might contain filters for `dev`, `test`, and
     `production`.
   * **Label name**: A label from a metric, which you want to filter by.
   * **Matcher**: A list of label names. Matchers support regular expressions.
   * **Default value**: Set an optional default value for this pinned scope. This
     value should be one of the values from the **Label name**.
   * **Values**: Label values. In the previous example, `dev`, `test`, and
     `production` are label values.
4. Click **Save**.
