# Deprecated: filter values

> available_selection_values: deprecated; use search_filter_values instead.

> **Deprecated.** `available_selection_values` stays available for 12 months from the v2 launch, with 3 emailed notices, then it stops working. Use [`search_filter_values`](https://emailmovers.com/mydatahub/docs/reference/mcp/search_filter_values.md) instead.

Deprecated: lists the values of one filter category by numeric id. Use search_filter_values instead. It takes the field name and search text and returns codes with contact and company counts. It stops working 12 months after the new tools launch, after three emailed notices; https://emailmovers.com/mydatahub/docs/migrate maps every call. Lawful basis is UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) legitimate interests; email audiences include corporate subscribers only by default (PECR), so sole traders and ordinary partnerships are left out unless the toggle is changed.
