How to Find a Value by searching Multiple Columns in

Approach: You can create derived column and use CONCATENATE DAX formula to get the value, DAX example as below and then you can use Text Filter - so it can filter in either column


DerivedFiledName = CONCATENATE( 'DataSource 1'[DS1FieldName]   ,'DataSource2'[ DS2FieldName])
