Line filters on order exports used to select only which orders go into the file, and each order kept all of its rows. Now you can also export only the lines that match, for example to get a file with just the items to fulfill.

### 🚀 What's New

- **Include only matching lines** - Select this option on a line filter, such as SKU or vendor, to export only the matching line items and their fulfillment and refund lines ([see how it works](https://support.getaltera.com/en/articles/11490221-order-fields#include-only-matching-lines)).
- **Line type filter** - Exports orders by the kinds of rows they have, such as refund lines or shipping lines, and can keep only those rows ([see the filter](https://support.getaltera.com/en/articles/11490221-order-fields#line-type-filter)).
- **API and MCP support** - Set `include_only_matching_rows` on a line filter to use the option from the API or an AI assistant.
