Hi Anonymous,

Do you mean the search box in built-in slicer visual?

Does the issue happen in Power BI desktop or service?

Which data source does report get data from and which connection mode do you use?

If the report import data from source, please share pbix file with us if possible. You can upload it to your OneDrive and send the share link to me via private message.

Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu
