Slicer with 3 independent fields

[emily_anderson]

I need to create a slicer that lets me choose to switch between three fields, Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3.

These Groups contain multiple locations under them. I am not looking to filter by their actual location detail, just "Group 1", "Group 2", or "Group 3". Essentially the way I would do it with three buttons but I want it to be a slicer.

Heirarchy slicer does not achieve what I am looking to do.

@emily_anderson,

A field parameter would allow you to create a slicer with the three Group fields, and dynamically choose the field to display in the visual.

That's what I needed - thank you!
