How to search multiple key value in a slicer with "OR" relationship?

[AiolosZhao]

Hi all,

For example, I have a column named "customer name" and this column has thousands of values.

For now, the default slicer doesn't have the "select all" function after we do the search as far as I know.

So for example, if I search "AB", there will be too many values in the slicer, and I can't click them one by one.

I also try to do it in the filter pane. I can use the "contains" to filter the data.

But I want to input more keywords into this filter, the filter pane only supports two "contains" with "OR".

For example, if I want to do the fuzzy search in my slicer like name like "AB" or "BA" or "CD" or "DC",

how can I do that?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @AiolosZhao ,

As far as I know, there is no such feature for the time being.

Maybe you can try to use the iterative function and the search function for fuzzy matching, and then apply this measure to the visual level filter.

@amitchandak  The Text Filter can only search one value at once as far as I know.

Am I right?
