When we filter for more than one item, the cell that contains the filter drop-down menu displays the phrase (Multiple Items). There is no built-in way to see what items the pivot table is being filtered for unless we open the filter drop-down menu and scroll through the list.

However, there are a few simple ways to display this list on the worksheet. We can use a slicer, connected pivot table, or simple formula using TEXTJOIN or CONCATENATE to display the filter list. Each solution is pretty easy to implement.
