Text Search Deprecated - what is its replacement?
- 4 years ago
All ( Anonymous pmurz mlucking motoray ),
MS support just contacted me and confirmed that the Text Filter visual will NOT be deprecated in response to community requests. The deprecation warning will go away within a week.
EDIT: It looks like they have pulled it from AppSource and the warning has returned. I have reopened my case and reached out to the product team for an update.

I agree that the slicer option isn't the same. I have the same issue with selecting certain part numbers but I use the Filter Panel and add the slicer/filter there. Then you can set those to "advanced filtering" and it gives you a number of ways to filter, including "starts with". Once you put something in there and apply the filter, it will filter the visual on the page to those products vs having to select each one manually if you use the slicer on the page.
Oh... yeah... now that's intuitive for users!!! NOT!!!
Again, replacing a simple, elegant solution with an inferior one.
