# Add API Problem Filter Quick Fix

This quick fix can be used to quickly create an API problem filter for a known or expected API problem that cannot be easily corrected.

This quick fix is available in one of two places:

1. The Problems view.
2. Editing the resource the problem exists in.

### The Problems view

- Open the Problems view.
- Select an API Tools problem.

- Use Ctrl + 1 to trigger the quick fix from the Problems view (or use the context menu as shown above).

### Editing the resource

- Open the resource the API problem exists in.
- Use Ctrl + 1 on the corresponding problem.

Once the problem filter has been created the corresponding resource is rebuilt and the problem is removed from the Problems view and any open editors.
