    Hi Alessandro70 

    Thank you for contacting the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

    In Power BI, slicers act as filter input controls, allowing you to filter tables and other visuals. However, the reverse isn’t possible tables or other visuals cannot filter slicers. This is by design and follows Power BI’s current interaction model. The “Edit interactions” feature lets visuals affect each other, but it does not allow visuals to change slicers, which can limit dynamic reporting options where more bidirectional control is desired.

    If you need visuals to dynamically influence slicer options, it’s a good idea to submit this as a feature request in the Power BI Ideas forum, as MasonMA  suggested.

What would you mean when you mention 'Table Filter' in your first message? Did you want to use your 'table' to filter your 'Text Slicer'? 

If this is what you meant, then Power BI uses a one-way interaction flow, not the other way around:)
