Text Filter by Microsoft does not work on iOS

Hello,

 

I was starting to use the text filter by Microsoft (https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA104381309?src=office&tab=Overview) quite frequently since it is much more comfortable in complex product selection processes. 

 

However, when I create a mobile Power BI report with Power BI Desktop the search button of the component is not triggering any MDX statement. The SSAS receives no query. 

 

Is this a common bug? 

 

best regards,

Sebastian

    Text Filter works well in Power BI application on iOS 11.2.5.

    What iOS do you use? Do you use the latest Power BI app from the App store?

      Dear Ignat,

       

      unfortunately, I cannot confirm it is working. I did the update of iOS to 11.2.5, it is an iPhone 6S

       

      Power BI  version is 15.0
      Text Filter release from 12/28/2017
      iOS update done today

       

      Pressing "return" on iOS does not trigger an action and pressing on the magnifier doesn't work as well. 

      The normal slicer search is working on the same field. Could it be related to the number of entries (~200.000)?  

       

      We are running the mobile report on on-premise Power BI Report Server (October release, same like the Power BI Desktop). 

       

      best regards, 

      Sebastian

        Are you experiencing this issue in Power BI web? Can you share the embedded report with mock data in order to reproduce the issue on our end?

    Hi DSG-Lux & v-viig 

    Hope you are both well, at this time.

     

    Was this query ever resolved?

    I have just created a product search report for my organisation and readied it for mobile.

     

    The Text filter works on desktop & browser(company report server) but the text filter will not work at all in the Power BI Mobile App; whether it is the portriat - mobile designed page, or the landscape full report page

    It will not search any item, as if the search button is just an image!

    I am using the Android app

     

    Any information of how to get this working on Mobile would be appreciated!

     

    Many thanks for your help
