Hello! I’d like to put the filter bar controls in a different place on my document, see the screen shot here:
Is there a way to control the filter bar by a control value, and then hide the filter bar itself?

Nope. Sadly.
Asked for access to these controls via a formula when it first launched. But not possible =[
Hmmm could you just use controls without the filter bar? You can create them super easily like in the screenshot below
One way I take more control of my slicers is to make the kind of slicer I want manually.
For example type /select list or /checkbox where I want it above the table and then link the control to the table or values you want to look up.
I give the control a name that relates to its type and purpose (e.g. “S Names of staff” - where the leading S = select list). This naming helps me easy place it in a formula.
Then you manually make a filter in the side bar and use a formula to link it to your control (e.g. Staff Name = S Names of staff)
