R script: Unable to connect- envsxp

Hi I continue to get "Unable to Connect. Details: ENVSXP" When trying to connect my rscript to powerbi. My script runs completely fine on RStudio but just cannot connect to PowerBI. I see that this error occurs when I try to use a function from the anomalize package. What does ENVSXP mean, and how do I fix this error.

Yes, I have. Here is a script you can run and see the ENVSXP error. However, when you run this script in Rstudio it works perfectly.

 

library(anomalize)

library(dplyr)

sub= tidyverse_cran_downloads %>%
  time_decompose(count) %>%
  anomalize(remainder)
