Dynamic visualization with R

Hi,

Trying to build a small app with PowerBI visualization and data calculation in R.

Depending upon the data selection (through a filter visualization or similar), would like the revised dataset to be passed on to an R script and R-script containing simple correlation calucaltion and the resultant calculation to be displayed back in powerBI visualization.

Alternatively, is there any visualization (custom) which calclates the correlation coefficient for the selected data subset.

Thanks.

    The good news is the R Script visual will refresh each time a filter selection changes and the dataset it uses will reflect the changes.

    Hi natg,

     

    R visuals in Power BI Desktop are refreshed upon data updates, filtering, and R visuals respond to highlighting other visuals, but you cannot click on elements in the R visual in order to cross filter other elements.:smileyhappy:

     

    Regards
