Hi, I have a Dimension table of Employees like this,
Emp_ID | Emp_Name | Competency | Department |
1 | Haris | Data & Integration | AI |
2 | Jack | Data & Integration | Data |
3 | John | Data & Integration | Data |
4 | Alice | Development | Web |
Based upon that, I have added two Slicers on my Report by the name of Competency and Department.
My current Report looks like this,
What I am trying to understand is it is possible that in future, a new column gets added into my Dimension Table. For example, a new column by the name of Practice is added in my Dimension table and my Dimension table now looks like this,
Emp_ID | Emp_Name | Competency | Department | Practice |
1 | Haris | Data & Integration | AI | ML |
2 | Jack | Data & Integration | Data | Data Engineering |
3 | John | Data & Integration | Data | Reporting & Analytics |
4 | Alice | Development | Web | NodeJS |
Is there any possible way to automatically/dynamically add the Slicer for this newly imported Column in my Report. For example, once the Power BI receives this new column into its dataset, my report should automatically have a slicer for this Column like the following picture,
Is this somehow possible to do so in Power BI?

Hi @HassanAshas ,
Unfortunately power bi desktop does not support this feature at the moment.
If you would like to suggest feature improvements, you may vote the idea and comment here to improve this feature. It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
Best Regards,
