Search box filter based on two columns

I have a table with text columns for a person's name (Table[Name]) and a unique string called UserID (Table[UserID]). I want to have a search box (text box?) that will filter the table based on whether a user's name or userID is typed into that search box. 

 

I believe I will have to use a slicer to do this, but I can't figure out how to get the desired behaviour.

 

Any help would be much appreciated! 🙂

Hi @Anonymous

you could go to "import from marketplace", add a "Text slicer"

create a calcuated column

con = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE(Table2[userid],"-"),Table2[username])
