How to filter based on category metafield "Base color"

[janislanka]

Now that Shopify '24 has released its update on product colors (and other category metafields), how do you create a filter based on the Base color?  We have a lot of products and our filters must be simplified to the base colors. 

We have connected the category metafield and a product now has information on which color is available. But how do we expose the base color in the filter?

I guess the no-code solution would be to use something like a spreadsheet editor and add a formula transferring all base colors into tags.

And then the tags can be used for filtering
