Data from different table in a R visual.

Hello,

 

I need to use data from different tables in an R visual.

These tables have of course a different number of row.

 

But, PowerBI forces to put all the data in a same dataframe, which is not working if the column length aren't equal.

 

Do you have any idea to fix this ?

Maybe I can change the autolatic lines powerBI is adding to my script ?

 

Thanks a lot.

In this scenario, I suggest you create a calculated table to SUMMARIZE() column both tables together. Then drag fields from this calculated table into R visual to execute your R script.

Thank you and sorry for english mistakes if any.
