I am configuring a slicer visual named 'region_slicer' on page 'p1' for 'Geography[Region]'. Should I bind it using `--value`, `--category`, or `--field`?

Create and manage visuals on PBIR report pages. No Power BI Desktop connection is needed -- these commands operate directly on JSON files.
# Add by alias (pbi-cli resolves to the PBIR type)
pbi visual add --page page_abc123 --type bar
pbi visual add --page page_abc123 --type card --name "Revenue Card"
# Custom position and size (pixels)
pbi visual add --page page_abc123 --type scatter \
--x 50 --y 400 --width 600 --height 350
# Named visual for easy reference
pbi visual add --page page_abc123 --type combo --name sales_combo
Each visual is created as a folder with a visual.json file inside the page's
visuals/ directory. The template includes the correct schema URL and queryState
roles for the chosen type.
visual bind writes field references into the visual JSON. It does not
create measures — it only records that a measure should exist. If the measure
is missing from the TMDL, every visual bound to it will show an error in Desktop.
Before binding any visual to a measure, verify the measure exists:
# Option A: create it via pbi-cli (requires pbi connect)
pbi connect
pbi measure create "Total Revenue" -e "SUM(Fact_Sales[Total_Revenue])" -t Fact_Sales
# Option B: check existing measures in the TMDL file directly
# Look for `measure '...' =` lines in SemanticModel/definition/tables/*.tmdl
