Hi @lisratkoceri ,

 

You can add a slicer visual to your report page to get this done. I made the slicer single select.

Then you can use this slicer visual to interact with your chart:

Hope this helps.

Hi @lisratkoceri ,

 

Make sure you have single selection selected under the slicer settings:

Still getting the same results

Hi @lisratkoceri ,

 

I don't know what data you are looking for. You are moving a numeric column to the slicer now. Try moving a categorical column from your data.

May be Paid/Organic column as per your screenshot about the data.

Hi @lisratkoceri ,

Yes try using categorical column and also check your requirement what you really want.
