Autocomplete Filter (BI-Champ Suite)

This slicer brings autocompletion to Power BI, letting users quickly search text fields. Type a few letters of an identifier, name, code, or phrase and matching values are predicted and instantly selected as report filters.

Actively maintained commercial visual — regularly improved based on real customer usage and feedback.

Search uses contains (partial) matching by default, with optional exact matching when precision matters. Combine multiple terms, mix exact and partial logic, use fuzzy matching, and freely copy-paste values.

Designed for long-lived reports: upgrades remain stable and existing reports continue working as expected.

• Case, diacritic, punctuation, whitespace, and fuzzy matching options
