Hi,
I was hoping if you could add Filter Option in Data View Tab like Excel or PowerPivot. This would make cross checking super convenient

Regards,
Sami

RE: Add Filter in Data View PowerBI Desktop

Yes, please add this to Power BI. I start every model in excel for this reason. It is just too hard to debug / clean the data in Power BI without having a way to filter it out. Please fix this.

A column filter would be super helpful in PBID

RE: Add Filter in Data View PowerBI Desktop

Absolutely. I've had to rebuild reports in Power Pivot just to be able to do that, negating the use of PowerBI amost entirely.
