how to display the data label directly in box and whisker boxplot visual, rather than using tooltip

Hi experts, by using box and whisker boxplot visual, I created a box plot and now I want to display the id or name of a data point in th visual, do you know how to make it? Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous -Data Labels might not be directly supported in a Box and Whisker plot for individual points.

 

Below thread FYR

Box and Whisker chart Data Label - Microsoft Fabric Community

 

alternative: 

If displaying IDs or names directly on the visual is crucial and the Box and Whisker visual doesn't support it, consider using a different visual that better supports detailed labels or custom tooltips, such as a scatter plot or bar chart.
