Running Python scripts
Hey,
I made a bargraph using the Python visual that Power Bi supports, but when I upload it to the online Power Bi enviroment it doesn't work.
I think it may be because I added some external Python libraries like NLTK. The error I get when trying to load it in the online enviroment is as follows: "No module named 'nltk'". Is this intented? and is it not possible to use an external library that is not supported? or am I doing something wrong?
Hi Anonymous,
Yes, this should be related to power bi service security. (it will block the request to directly use the script to invoke external resources)
Please take a look at the following links to know more about these:
Python visualizations in Power BI Service | Microsoft Power BI Blog | Microsoft Power BI
Power BI Security - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
BTW, here is a document that lists the supported libraries of python visual, you can check it if helps:
