Hi s_nambaru,
You can directly add the numeric field into a slicer, and select a value from slicer to filter visualization.

I'm having the same issue. It seems number fields cant be used with the text filters search box.
You could create a new column and cast the number as text and use that,

That's the best solution but to make it work on Direct Query dashboards, in which you're not allowed to use CONVERT,FORMAT or CAST functions, you can use this workaround.
Create a new column like this = CONCATENATE("", [your_int_field]) and bind the Text Filter component to that column.
Hope it'll help
