Bulk text Filter

I want a slicer in which I can copy & paste bulk text values (seperated by comma or space). It should filter the tables or visuals on the Dash. Earlier "Filter by list" was available from Devscope. Its not there now. 

 

What can I do to achieve the same functionality?

 

TIA.

    Hi Anonymous 

     

    Can you post sample data as text and expected output?
    Not enough information to go on;

    The most important parts are:
    1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
    2. Expected output from sample data
    3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
    4. Relation between your tables

    Appreciate your Kudos!!

    I understand completely what it is you are trying to achieve here - I actually think your question is quite simple, and doesn't need to follow a full template.

    I am also looking for similar functionality - e.g. I have a list of of part numbers, and I want to be able to paste them directly into a published report as a list and use that list to filter the report.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    The search function in the slicer can use text and separator locking options.

      That is not what I would define as a bulk text filter - so that is not a solution.
