    Currently, there is no such a functionally to achieve your requirement, slicer cannot based on columns name. To work around this issue, you can Unpivot your table. Please refer to the steps below.

    1. Sample data.
    2. Unpivot table(select Column A, B, C, D and E>Unpivot Columns)
    3. Result

    Now you can filter your data in slicer by attribute column.
