Hi LuukBergwerff,

 

this is a known issue that’s been affecting list slicers in Power BI Service around that timeframe (starting 01-10-2025). It’s not your report; it’s related to a service-side update that changed how list slicers render

 

Try below fixes

 

 

  • Switch slicer style temporarily

    • Change the slicer from List to Dropdown, then republish.

    • Dropdowns are still working reliably in Service.

  • Remove search box

    • If you had “search” enabled in the list slicer, turn it off.

    • Republish; the list should render properly.

  • Recreate slicer from scratch

    • Sometimes deleting the broken slicer and recreating it fixes the rendering issue.

  • Use a different slicer visual

    • Install Chiclet Slicer or Smart Filter Pro from AppSource.

    • These visuals are often unaffected by the native list slicer bug.

  • Switch to a measure-based slicer (if feasible)

    • Create a disconnected table for slicer values and use a measure to filter your visuals.

    • This avoids the built-in list slicer entirely.
