Highcharter visual run in R Studio but not in Power BI Desktop

I have created one Highchart using R and Power BI in R Studio.

Below is a code for the same.

# Input load. Please do not change #
`dataset` = read.csv('C:/Users/spfarm/REditorWrapper_100adf83-d18c-428a-a5c8-0ddab4aeb0b1/input_df_49436338-78cc-4ac0-b4b2-3a828f25c90d.csv', check.names = FALSE, encoding = "UTF-8", blank.lines.skip = FALSE);
# Original Script. Please update your script content here and once completed copy below section back to the original editing window #
##############################
install.packages("highcharter")
library(highcharter)

hc <- highchart() %>%
  hc_xAxis(categories = dataset$Month) %>%
  hc_add_series(name = "London", data = dataset$London) 
  
  hc

The above code will generate following output in R Studio

Now, when I run the same code in Power BI R script visual, it throws following error.

"No image was created. The R code didn't result in creation of any visuals. Make sure your R script results in a plot to the R default device."

 

How to resolve this issue?

Hi @Dhruvin,

 

Based on my research, only plots that are plotted to the R default display device are displayed correctly on the canvas. Please have a look at below similar threads:

R visuals with the DiagrammeR package don't work in Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service

R graphics libraries does not work in PBI?
