### What is a one sentence summary of your feature request?

Currently, there is no option to filter “Details” in any search using a “does not contain” condition.

### Please describe your idea in detail. What is your problem, why do you feel this idea is the best solution, etc.

Adding this capability would allow for more flexible and precise data filtering in searches. For example, if you want to exclude activity records by the ApplicationName that appears on Details row.

### How do you currently solve the challenges you have by not having this feature?

Manually exporting and editing a CSV file.

This would also help me with alerts! Example: I would like to know when someone shares a file externally, but it gets a bit noisy if someone is sharing daily reports with one particular customer. I’d like the ability to filter those out so I don’t get an email.
