@v-danhr-msft,
I just want to understand what exactly PBI supports Shiny R package means ?
Can you elaborate some more info on the same since I am not getting a clear picture.

Hi @gowrishankar65,

Currently R Shiny apps are not supported in Power BI. This is bacause R Visuals require the script result as an image, rather than an HTML/JS file.
