Is possible to call R script with button?

Is possible to "attach" R script as action to button?

Hey @sekic

 

This is technically possible, although kind of a work around and maybe not what you're looking for. You can just make a slicer with one selection and make this look like a button using the Chiclet slicer or the stock slicer with horizontal orientation. Then you could pull the slicer value into an R visual so that R script will run any time you make a selection on the slicer.

 

Hope this helps,

Parker

 

Many thanks, your idea is brilliant and I can apply it on my python visual too
