Text slicer: pasting multiple values
- Anonymous1 year ago
Hi arawo ,
Thank you for the confirmation.
It's not currently possible to paste a comma separated list like blue, red, black directly into a native text slicer and have it filter by partial matches. However, this use case is well supported through other options.
The most effective approach is to use the free "Filter by List" custom visual from AppSource, which allows you to paste multiple values into a textbox and filters your data accordingly, even with partial matches in descriptions.
Alternatively, Power BI new list slicer( Preview features) supports pasting a list of exact values to filter, though it only works with full match.
While a DAX-based workaround using a disconnected input table can simulate this behavior, it is more complex and static. For ease of use and flexibility, the "Filter by List" custom visual is the recommended solution.
Hope this helps.If so,give us kudos and consider accepting it as solution.

Pallavi G.
