Feb 2020 Hierarchy Slicer Preview - Too many columns in the values bucket

[SMHolck]

The Feb 2020 Feature Summary noted the release of the preview version of a standard Hierarchy Slicer using the non marketplace standard Filter visual.  And it works great on Desktop, but as many have noted in the comments https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-february-2020-feature-summary/, when you publish and view on PowerBi.com, you receive an error saying "Too many columns in the Values bucket."  I have a 3 level hierarchy and there are < 10 values total in the lowest level.  Is this a Premium only feature?  Or how do we get around this problem?

ERROR: Too many columns in the Values bucket

Workaround: I got around the "Too many columns in the Values Bucket" error by publishing as a Dropdown, then editing on PowerBI.com. I then changed it again in desktop and republished and it is still working. See if that works for you.  Kludgey, but it works.
