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

With the June release of Power BI Desktop we've made this feature generally available. Thanks for voting and giving us feedback!

RE: Slicer Hierarchy

This will free up a ton of space on my dashboard. I can combine 5 slicers into one. Please!!!

RE: Slicer Hierarchy

With the new ability to "sync slicers" this is needed more than ever.

The custom Hierarchy Slicer is such a staple for users that I'm shocked MS hasn't updated their own by now.

RE: Slicer Hierarchy

RE: Slicer Hierarchy

Can someone please bring this one back up from the dead?! Under review Dec. 2014. 3 years later?

As others noted, Custom Hierarchy slicer has many issues and limitations.

RE: Slicer Hierarchy

The custom visual hierarchy slicer is no longer working, so we really need the feature asap

RE: Slicer Hierarchy

"Under Review" since 2014? This is a very important piece of basic functionality, please keep considering. Most of it is already available with the custom hierarchy slicer - we pretty much need the same just with a collapsible option so it doesn't take up too much space on the report.

RE: Slicer Hierarchy

We have multi level product hierarchy (Total>Category> Sub Category 1> Sub Category 2> Merchandise Area > Planning Group > Sub Planning Group > SKU). Basically, we need 6 or 7 slicers just for our Products, meaning we seriously lack space for much else on the screen. We really need this!
