Hi @Chamilag

What do you mean by not in ?

Is it a filter like this one:

Hi @Chamilag

Thank you for reaching out microsoft fabric community forum.

Currently, Power BI’s export filters don’t support the "Not In" condition — only basic operations like In, Equals, Greater Than, etc., are supported. This isn’t clearly documented but is a known limitation.

Workaround:

You can flip the logic by:

Using an "In" filter in the export, and
Excluding the unwanted values inside the report using DAX or visual-level filters.
