    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 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!
