Helper IImultiple item search slicer (I need help with finding a certain visualization)
I believe this was an added feature in the February update. See link below:

Helper IIHi rajulshah! Thank you for your reply.
I already have Smart Filter but when I copy and paste large amounts of data, it does not give me what I need.
Let me try to explain with an example...
I have an excel list full of serial numbers for car parts and I want to be able to copy the whole field (or column- same thing :manhappy:) with about 500-1000 serial numbers and paste it into a search box on my POWER BI report that will, in turn, give me information for just those particular part numbers.
I have attached a screenshot to show you the problem that I am running into ...
I hope that this makes sense! :smileyvery-happy: please let me know what you think!
baBI123,
I don't think that the existing custom visuals or built-in slicer provide the feature you describe, I would recommend you submit a feature request in the Power BI ideas.

LydiaHello,
I have the same requirements (to copy and paste large lists of item numbers into a slicer for multi selection). Was this improvement added to any custom visualizations?
Thank you,
