Filter: Profile Field
The profile field filter allows you to select users based on the value of a specific user profile field. Both standard Moodle profile fields (such as name, email, or idnumber) as well as custom profile fields are supported. This makes it easy to target users based on any attribute stored in their profile.
Combining multiple profile field conditions
To filter users based on multiple profile fields simultaneously, add one filter instance per field to the same workflow step. All filters inside a single step are combined with a logical AND. See workflow execution model for more details.
