I wonder is there anyone knows how to create a search box for entire page on Power BI ? Not filtering, please! I have been reading comeents and some other answers for this questions but I am not looking for filtering, looking for Search Box across multiple fields.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    The entire-search box to highlight is not available. 

     

    Currently, we could use Slicer together with "Interaction" or  use report-level filter to show filtered data. 

     

    So as I mentioned before, you could log an idea here: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/

      Hi Eyelyn, 

       

      Thank you for replying. Actually, Power Bi gives a option to create a search box only for 1 table, it does not exist one report page. I was wondering is there anyway that we can create a search box for one report page which might include all table and graph visualizations. Other words, we have a Search Button/Bar on the top right of this page(Power BI Page), we can searh and it highlights everything on this screen if find something. I am actaully looking for to create a Seearch Button exactly that. I hope it makes sense now. 

      Thank you

      Hi Evelyn, the reqirement is actually to highlight column or row or word which is searched when the user types in the search box. Now, I only used the filter with one table but it is not accepted. Also I wonder do you know when we use the filter and select anything from filter to go directly other report page ? 

      Thank you
