Slicer Header Keeps Showing on PowerBI Service

There is a bug where slicer headers which have been turned off on PowerBI desktop still show when I publish the report to PowerBI Service. 

Seems very familiar to a previous bug: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Slicer-Header-Keeps-Showing/m-p/1135975

 

Pics of how it looks in desktop:


Pics of how it appears in PowerBI service when published:

 

The header 'Date Range' should not appear. I noticed it today.

 

Please keep me updated. Thanks!

  • I found the reason and solution. "Header" was enable in my power bi desktop (even though I do not recall enabling it at any point). This made all the elements of the slicer to be pushed down, disabling the slider. When I manually disabled header from power bi desktop and published, everything went back to normal. I have to go and manually disable headers from every single page I have.

    Hi analyticsyc ,
    Thanks for GilbertQ  reply. I tested on Version: 2.128.751.0 64-bit (April 2024) and it shows that when I turn the slicer header off on Power Bi desktop and upload it to service, and then turn it on on Power Bi service, the slicer header still doesn't show up. As GilbertQ  said, you can update your Power Bi desktop to Version: 2.128.751.0 64-bit (April 2024). Here is a screenshot of my test:

     

    Best regards,

      I have Version: 2.128.751.0 64-bit installed and face identical problem. On Power BI Desktop I have a nice date slicer with slider and header turned off.

       

      After publishing the slider is missing and the header is displaying:

  • Hi analyticsyc 

     

    Could you download and instal the latest version of power bi desktop and then re upload your PBIX to the service to see if this resolves your issue?
