Hi All, I have a specific query regarding the use of Python scripts for data import in Power BI. My process involves using the 'Get Data' feature in Power BI, where I choose Python as the data s...
Hi lbendlin. Thank you for your reply. Just to make sure I've understood correctly. Let's assume the Power BI report has not yet been published but is currently being built.

Which kind of leads me to my next question. If I import a file via Python, apply Power Query M transformations and then apply some more Python transformations in Power Query. Would this still mean all of the workload is pushed outside of Power BI to the python environment?.
Thanks in advance.
Are you asking "will it fold?" ? I would doubt that but don't know for sure. You can test it and seee for yourself.
