How to export an R dataframe to a Power Query table

I'm using an R script within Power Query to do some data transformations and return a scaled table. My R code is like this:

# 'dataset' contém os dados de entrada neste script
library(dplyr)
df_normal <- log(dataset+1) %>%
select(c(2:4)) %>%
scale df_normal <-cbind(dataset[,c(1)], df_normal)
output <- df_normal

This works OK in R Studio and I'm getting the df_normal dataframe as expected.

However, in Power Query I get an empty table!

r

How do I export the dataframe to a table?

I have not done much with R, but have you tried changing the last line to 

 

dataset <- df_normal

 

as I believe that the 'dataset' variable is the interface between Power Query and R.

@d_gosbell  thanks, I tried it, but it's still empty.

@webportal ,

 

The latest version of Power BI Desktop seems to work for me.
