Power BI Slicer Options

Hi Team,

 

hope, i knew that what i am looking will not work as the the possibilities we have in Power BI. 

 

But just want to check with you, if i missed and have possiblity to enable it would be great for me to explore.

 

What i am looking is,

 

Have a date slicer in my report like below on Power BI desktop

 

i can click on filter type option on below and select as relative date option and get the slicer like below

 

 

So here, if i keep slicer as between and publish i can see only between option and can't change the filter type to Relative date.

if i keep relative date and published to service, there i can't chage to between.. want to change it based on user choice in power Bi serice as well...so will it be possible or not?

if possible, what options should i enable it on Power Bi desktop file to change accordingly filter type on service as well.

 

 

Thanks so much for your kind help and support.

 

 

Thanks,

Lavan

    Hi lavankumar1989a 

    Please correct me if I wrongly understood your problem .

    You said you cannot change the type for date slicer in Power BI Service ? If you set ‘Relative Date’ for date slicer in Desktop and publish it to Service , you cannot change the type to ‘Between’ , right ?

    But I restore the scene you said ,I can change the type for the date slicer .In my sample ,I create a date slicer with ‘Relative Date’ in Desktop ,then publish it to Service .I find the report that I published before and edit it in Service, then change the type .You can see the screenshot below .

    Best Regards
