Create new table using Python script in Power BI

Hi,

 

I have a table in Power BI which I would like to do some aggregation and data transformation on it using pandas and save the output as a new table in Power BI. Is there anyway to do this in Power BI?

 

Thanks

No.  The python visual is supposed to plot something, it will not return anything back except that plot.

Very new to Power BI and Jupyter but came across what looks like a way to create a table (with data) using Python and get it into Power BI. Curious if this would work because using Python to manipulate Power BI seems like a good combination.

After creating a table in Jupyter
Go back to Power BI:
Click Get Data and select Text/CSV
click Transform Data in the Home tab
go to the Transform tab and click Run Python Script
Go back to your Jupyter Notebook and copy the syntax from the cell. Then, paste it into the script editor.

Thank you @lbendlin , Is there any way to apply python functions to table data in Power BI and get a dataframe back in return?

Only in Power Query. Not in the UI part.
