Confirmation is required regarding Custom Format Strings in Power BI Service

Hi,

Could you please confirm the below functionality whether it will work in power bi service or not ?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-custom-format-strings 

 

 

As per above document, it seems that the feature is not supported in Power BI Service.  But, it is working in power bi service as well when we tried. Please confirm if we can trust this feature and move into our production workspace.

 

Thanks,

Venkat
