Argument Description

The FILTER function will return an array, which will spill if it's the final result of a formula. This means that Excel will dynamically create the appropriately sized array range when you press ENTER. If your supporting data is in an Excel table, then the array will automatically resize as you add or remove data from your array range if you're using structured references. For more details, see this article on spilled array behavior.
