Hi, @faheem_Latif_BI 

Based on your description, I have created these sample data below:

First, we need to go inside PowerQuery and extract our type, removing the symbols:

vjianpengmsft_1-1721872730748.png

Open the PowerQuery Advanced Editor and use the following M code:

vjianpengmsft_5-1721873538622.png

 

SplitColumn = Table.ExpandListColumn(Table.TransformColumns(#"Changed Type", {{"Type", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(";#", QuoteStyle.Csv), type text}}), "Type"),
    #"Removed Duplicates" = Table.Distinct(SplitColumn)

Note that you changed #“Changed Type” to the name of the step you took in the previous step:

Get the table below:

Close and apply:

vjianpengmsft_7-1721873624078.png

Use the following DAX expression to create a new measure in Power BI:

Filter = 
VAR _table1 = SELECTCOLUMNS('Table','Table'[Type])
VAR _table2 = SELECTCOLUMNS('Table (2)','Table (2)'[Type])
VAR _table3 = FILTER(ADDCOLUMNS(CROSSJOIN(_table1,_table2),"contain?",IF(FIND('Table (2)'[Type],'Table'[Type],1
    ,0)<>0,1,0)),[contain?]=1)
VAR _current_row = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Type])
RETURN MAXX(FILTER(_table3,'Table'[Type]=_current_row),[contain?])

Create a new slicer using the type column of Table (2):

Use the table table to create a new visual object and in the filter panel, place the measure at the visual  level:

The results are as follows:

vjianpengmsft_12-1721874650314.png

I have provided the PBIX file used in this instance below.
