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

RE: Slicer for number search
This really needs to be addressed. Converting all of our numeric indexes to text in our report data models so we can search on them is not a good design. We need a way for a report user to be able to easily filter the data on a numeric ID. These are numeric values, but they are used like text. This is a very common use case. Please add this feature as soon as possible.
RE: Slicer for number search
Slicer should be searchable regardless of data type. Dates, number, text are the most important.
RE: Slicer for number search
Adding the ability to search in numeric slicers is super important. As an example I want to be able to search by ClientID or StudentID, instead of having to convert it to a text field which adds an extra data element.

2021 and still unresolved??!
This is not hard to implement.. also, number search is a basic feature for any program that works with data.
RE: Slicer for number search
Hi, all!
Only 54 (55 with mine) votes ??! This is A MUST, basics...and only 54 users need this...
Does it mean that everybody else change the Data type to Text or duplicates the numeric column ?
Bizarre...
RE: Slicer for number search
I need this as well!
Now I have to change data type to text, and this is a KeyID column, so I had to change it everywhere to text. As we all know strings are slower than integers, please implement that!
RE: Slicer for number search
We need this.
Picture You want to find a telephone number with "between" slicer option...
RE: Slicer for number search
Need search option for number and date slicer(Specially when we are using list for date slicer) it's every important and urgent requirement.
RE: Slicer for number search
Agreed: Not having a search option on a numeric field just seems like an oversight.
