How to add text field in a filter?

Hello,

I have a filter with lots of data in the filter. Is there a way I can add/enable text field in the filter so that the user can type the data rather than scroll?

For example in the below image, I would like a way to type Marketing instead of scrolling the filter option.

Thanks

On the slicer header under more options (...) you can enable the search option.

After you do the user will see a search field on dropdown
