Slicer Search Bar
Hi Gitankshi,
Click on the elipses of the slicer and click on search, to enable the search bar.
Thank you,

Hi Gitankshi ,
You can find the slicer in the Power BI Desktop.
My test version: Version: 2.112.603.0 64-bit (December 2022)
You can open my pbix file to have a look. If not, please provide a screenshot or pbix file for us to test.

I just realised that it appears in ellipsis if the field is of type "Text". Mine was "whole number" and now it's working perfectly with type "Text". Thanks everyone for the replies!

Hi Vishesh,
Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately, it is not available post the Dec'22 update. Seems like a glitch at PowerBI's end.
hi Vishesh...
does it work when automatically want to chose more than one option.. meaning.. wrods containing an specific string like "AAA" and then selecting the whole range of item without the need of clicking on every single option ???
Hi RACANXI,
I doubt that is possible. You will have to manually select every single option.I tried to filter the options out from the filter pane as well and then use the select all option on the slicer itself, but it does not work.
Sorry can't be of much help here.
Thank you,

it seems search in slicer has ben removed. Is that the case with new version of Power BI desktop?
Hi Vickram,
Are you using a numeric field on your slicer?
If yes, then search does not work with numbers.
I am using the July 2024 version right now and I can see the search option in the slicer in my desktop file.
Hope this helps!
