R Custom visual with plotly table

Anonymous — Fri, 17 May 2019 15:08:08 GMT

I am trying to create an R custom visual that uses the plotly table but when trying to use it in power bi service, it gives the following message:

"Loading required package: XML Loading required package: htmlwidgets Loading required package: ggplot2 Loading required package: plotly Attaching package: 'plotly' The following object is masked from 'package:ggplot2': last_plot The following object is masked from 'package:stats': filter The following object is masked from 'package:graphics': layout Error: Trace type must be one of the following: 'scatter', 'box', 'bar', 'heatmap', 'histogram', 'histogram2d', 'histogram2dcontour', 'pie', 'contour', 'scatterternary', 'sankey', 'scatter3d', 'surface', 'mesh3d', 'scattergeo', 'choropleth', 'scattergl', 'pointcloud', 'heatmapgl', 'parcoords', 'scattermapbox', 'carpet', 'scattercarpet', 'contourcarpet', 'ohlc', 'candlestick', 'area'
Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details."

Isn't the table type available for power bi service?

Did You manage to find the solution for the problem?

Hi @Anonymous,

If I remember correctly, Power BI service doesn't support plotly's option table, so I used the package htmltable and managed to build what I needed.

Hi @Anonymous,

Thanks for the reply.

It would be have been great if the power bi service supported table for plotly since display and colors are better in plotly than the integrated R visual, nevertheless I tried contacting Microsoft's support team for help as well..even they seem to be clueless..

I will use ggtexttable for displaying the KPIs (which I am trying to display using plotly..), since I have used ggtextable previously.
