Slicer Hierarchy

Dragging a hierarchy into a report and change it to slicer... can we get a slicer with hierarchy (collapsible/expandable)?

    @will Thomson, You should design a filter that has the hierarchy mode, or as a complement to the filter you have.

    @Will Thompson, any updates? Alternatively please just implement the Hierarchy Slicer Custom Visual as a default Visual in Power BI.

    As others have said, the custom one is a start but lacks in many areas, a hierarchy slicer is a basic requirement.

    The custom visual hierarchy slicer does not work well. Syncing slicers does not work. Exporting to pdf does not show this slicer as it is not Microsoft certified.

    We really need a working hierarchy slicer. The existing one from a third-party is slow, buggy, not updated anymore, and does not work with new features such as sync slicers.

  • Andrew Lucius commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Given the lack of support for the third-party Hierarchy slicer (e.g., doesn't work with sync slicers), can this feature just be added to the official slicer?

    Look, MS, this is absolutely essential. We will not consider PBI within the enterprise BI strategy without such basic feature as Hierarchy slicer. Please address this soonest possible.

    Preciso muito desta funcionalidade. É inacreditável que o PBI ainda não tenha essa opção. 4 anos já se passaram e nada!!!!

    OK MS, is this on the roadmap or NOT? 4 years is along time to wait. If you aren't going to tackle it, please let everyone know.

    The existing custom visual for this is now being flagged as obsolescent in PBI DT, so its end is close unless it gets overhauled by the supplier.

    It would be nice to get an update on the status of this. Hierarchy slicer is basic functionality that we have in other Microsoft tools like Excel, Access, SSRS, PerformancePoint, etc. We would like a reliable hierarchy slicer that performs well that is out-of-the-box. Have run into issues with the custom visual with regards to reliability and performance. Thanks.

    Any idea if and when this new feature will be released? I am happy with the 3rd party hierarchy slicer but it does not sync between pages. If this can be developed, I would be very thankful.

    Nearly 4 years, on. Any updates on where this is going? Ragged/Natural Hierarchy handling has a lot of limitations in PBI, but a lot of applications in Org and Financial reporting.
