 ```
 
+If you would like to have an allowlist of explicitly listed tables, you can put
+the following in your `[filter]` section:
+```
+[filter]
+* = ignore
+customer_address = include
+customer = include
+sales_order_address = include
+system_dump_version = include
+```
+
+The same can be done for `nodata`:
+```
+[filter]
+# All tables are data only by default
+* = nodata
+# But include the data for the customer table
+customer = include
+```
+
 ## TO DO
 
 * Extend MySQL support, with other objects like views, triggers, etc
