Hi @Anonymous ,
The error message "IndentationError: unexpected inden" indicates that this line of code has more spaces at the start than the one before.
This error occurs on the file PythonScriptWrapper.PY, this is a file generated by PowerBI which contains your Python code.
Please check if you have spaces before your Python code:
Best Regards,
