Tabulating Dimensions/Parameters

We have many parts of similar types such as screws and tubes. We need these to be findable by their properties and, by extension, their dimensions. How do I export a dimension or parameter in general so it can be picked up by a Category and tabulated?

I searched here:

https://cad.onshape.com/help/Content/Plans/categories.htm

https://www.onshape.com/en/blog/introducing-categories-in-onshape

https://www.onshape.com/en/resource-center/videos/categorizing-onshape-properties

None of the above actually show the usage of custom properties to filter and sort parts. It seems I am stuck on the very first and last steps of this process. Help is appreciated.

I posted about this before, I think, but it was buried in a thread about something else. I thought it better to be in it's own thread.
