@Anonymous,

To import a custom visual into a Power BI report, package it as a single .pbiviz file.

To use Collapsible Tree in Power BI you should develop a new custom visual in TypeScript by following this documentation.

Another way is to use D3.js Visual that has Collapsible Tree as a example.

@jppp developed this custom visuals. Feel free to ask any questions.

Hello @v-viig

Do you probably have an Idea how can I convert the code in the previous link into a cde that is compatible with a power pbi visual , many people recommend to use visual studio code but I am not sure where and how to put the code in visual studio .

As a simpliest solution I'd recommend to use D3.js visual.

If you want to create a new visual you should follow documentation.
