There should be a slicer that has the search options for numbers. The available slicer give search options for text only not for numbers.

I'm shocked that this isn't already a feature. What logical explanation could there be for leaving this out?

RE: Slicer for number search

could not agree more. We should be able to search the value regardless data type. it's very odd that the function is only able for text data type. Please PBI team look into this request. Thanks

Can't understand why number data unable to be searched. There are so many master data IDs are numbers, such as customer/Vendor UID, order number.... Get it done a.s.a.p, please!

I would use this repeatedly for Postcode/Zipcode data

RE: Slicer for number search

I'm currently being blocked because of the lack of this feature.I consume a data cube where there are whole number fields for "Customer ID" and "Partner ID". I can't change these fields from whole numbers to text, and just because of that, the users of my report can't search for one specific Customer ID and Partner ID, when using the slicer filter on my report.My users already reported to me that they want to search for one specific Customer ID, but I can't do that with the slicer filter!!! And we have 100,000s of customer IDs on our data cube!!! We definitely need to have search implemented for whole numbers!!
