<Aside type="tip" title="Experimental Feature">
This feature is currently experimental and not yet complete. See the [filter-flag experiment documentation](/docs/reference/experiments#filter-flag) for details on what is and isn't supported.

Usage of the `--no-filters-file` flag requires usage of the `filter-flag` experiment, like so:

```bash
terragrunt find --experiment filter-flag --no-filters-file
```

Examples below will omit the `--experiment filter-flag` flag for brevity.
</Aside>

The `--no-filters-file` flag disables automatic reading of the `.terragrunt-filters` file. By default, when the `filter-flag` experiment is enabled, Terragrunt automatically reads filter queries from `.terragrunt-filters` in the working directory. Use this flag to disable that automatic behavior.

## Usage

```bash
# Disable automatic .terragrunt-filters reading
terragrunt find --no-filters-file

# Use with run --all
terragrunt run --all --no-filters-file -- plan
```
