Description

Since this visual was built, new Filter features have become available e.g. Advanced Filter API:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/visuals/filter-api#the-advanced-filter-api

This visual could be greatly improved by implementing those, e.g.

  • implement "and" functionality by default e.g. if the user enters "word1 and word2". It currently matches that as one string
  • implement "or" functionality, e.g. if the user enters "word1 or word2"
  • implement the various "Condition Operators" eg DoesNotContain - probably best as a format property

Research direction

Start by reading the linked Power BI Advanced Filter API documentation and reviewing the visual's current text-matching behavior. Define how default “and” and explicit “or” queries should work, then cover the listed condition operators such as DoesNotContain through a format property. Done means the requested filtering behaviors are implemented and verifiable.
