Filter based on different columns (from one table (can't change the data))

[Gjakova]

Hi there,

I have a Power BI dashboard which has a live connection, so I can't do any transformation with the data...
I have the following problem I would like to solve:

Column A	Column B	Column C
400	700	950
840	9430	9309430
930493	709038	63

I have a line chart, bar chart etc. but I would like that my slicer contains: column A, column B and column C
So if I want to see the values of Column B over time, I just select column B in my slicer. And if I want to see Column A, then I just select Column A in my slicer. Thus the line chart will automatically adjust to what I selected in my slicer.

Usually I would just unipivot the table, but since it is a live connection I cannot make any changes to the data (also I am not allowed to). Does someone know how I would solve this problem? Many thanks in advance!

@Gjakova , Measure slicer in another way. But there also you need to have a table for slicer values.

Maybe you can try the bookmark approach. -https://radacad.com/bookmarks-and-buttons-making-power-bi-charts-even-more-interactive
