Text Filter has 100 characters limit in Power BI Service

Yes, Power BI Service limits text input to ~100 characters when using Text filter / text input–style interactions, even though Power BI Desktop does not. The limit cannot be configured or increased today.

As an alternative I belive you could use Power App visual but obviously you would need to work with Power Automate for that.

Hi jorgekino 

The 100‑character cap in Power BI Service text filters is a documented limitation. While Power BI Desktop allows longer inputs, the Service environment truncates text filter entries at 100 characters. This restriction cannot be adjusted or expanded. To handle longer strings, consider alternative approaches such as parameters, embedding Power Apps, or leveraging custom visuals. Marketplace options like Text Filter Pro or Smart Filter Pro provide extended text input support beyond the default limit.

Hi,

A possible solution.

Enable “Accept multiple values.”

Change the comment variable from a str to a list.

Add code to format it into a readable sentence
comment = " ".join(comment)

All other code can remain the same.

Use the comment variable as NVARCHAR(MAX).

Now, write sentences under 100 characters. Press Enter after each sentence.
