Hi Dale,
Thanks for your reply!
I like your answer and maybe use it someday. In this case however, it doesn't solve the problem. The list of values cannot be imported because it could be any value of a(ny) column based on what the end user wants to filter. The report and definitions stay the same.
Example. The power bi report contains a list of customer analysis and details. A filter on Customer ID is added so the user can filter on a range or selected values. The user gets a request from a colleage with has a list of, lets say, 100 customer id's that need special attention. He/she wants to use this list and pastes it into the power bi report filter so the report filters down to these 100 customers. The next day, a different set of customer id's will be needed to filter. This can happen multiple times per day for multiple users.
Thanks
Hi Anonymous,
I have no idea about your actual model. So just some discussions here.
As you said in your first post, the column could be from a Excel file or a csv file. Import it, use it, finally delete the new table. Do these steps in the next searching.
There are still some other ways.
1. Paste the values in the Desktop directly. A new table will be created. You can delete it later.
2. If you can organize the values like this, you can paste it in the formula directly. {"value1", "value2", "value3"}
IfIn =
IF ( MIN ( 'Calender'[Date] ) IN { "value1", "value2", "value3" }, 1, 0 )

I like the Idea, but this function is not available in the power bi service. This would work for developers, but not for end users.

Voted. Thanks for the links. Qlik has this. PowerBi should have had these features years ago!
