Text filter field adding more values

Hi! I have a text filter but in its field section, I can only drag in "county". Is there a way to put in more values? For example, I can search county, zip code and city at the same time. Thanks!

Hi @bbbbi01

 

Please try this:
First of all, I create a set of sample data: 

vzhengdxumsft_0-1709173130464.png

Home > Transform data >Select the Column 1 and Column 2(county, zip code and city...) > Transform > Unpivote Columns > apply&close

vzhengdxumsft_1-1709173383411.png

The result is as follow:

If the above one can't help you, could you please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following links to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing! It's helpful and i appreciate the step-by-step guide. I tried it and i think it created a new column named "attribute". It actually affected my map as now there's no city and zip code column.

Hi @bbbbi01 

Yes, you can
You should insert State, ZIP in Slicer Field
Slicer will work like Hirerchical Slicer
Then you can search for State, ZIP etc



Let me know if that works for you

Thank you for your answer. But I'm not using the slicer. I just used the Text filter so i cannot insert multiple values.
