2 Merged Ideas
Comments This is badly needed... I need to have a table cell turn green if true and red if false. It looks like you have everything in place already, not sure why simple text value match is not already in the software.
Any updates on this?
Planned since May, 2018?
Lets get this done. Easy fix Excel already has rules like this.

Yes please - conditional formatting on text values would appear to be basic funtionality
It's in Excel, why isn't it in here? Seems pretty basic if you ask me...
We have a financial report layout table where we setup the complete custom structure with headers, line spacing etc. Then use DAX to map to the reporting items (e.g. Revenue, COGS etc.). In Excel Pivot Tables I can easily manually set the e.g. "Total Revenue" line to be bold and larger font size. I imagine this feature would enable similar reporting in PowerBI.
Would be useful for displaying status info, e.g. like "Success" green, "Failure" red, "Partially succeeded" orange etc.
It surprises me that Microsoft would have thought that only NUMBERS would be relevant data to be used for reporting purposes in Power BI, and thus only NUMBERS would need to be subject to conditional formatting. For a company worth so much money, they lack SO MUCH in their ability to publish a complete and polished software product the first time around.
Also need this.

This month we added the ability to format text fields based off a numeric field: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-may-2018-feature-summary/#conditionalFormatting We also are planning on adding a feature that will let you format your text based on comparisons. I'll update this idea based on our progress on that feature.
