This step aims to filter HubSpot data at operation start-time in order to optimize the run performance and avoid the HubSpot maximum search result limit of 10k objects.

The filters system reflect as-is the HubSpot Search API filters system. Using this page you can set AND and OR filters, but with some limitation:

* The maximum number of AND filters per single group is: 6
* The maximum number of OR filter groups are: 5
* The maximum number of results is: 10.000 (10k)

These limits are HubSpot hard-limits and, unfortunately, they are not avoidable in any way.
