Using python script without installing python packages

Hello,

Is there a way to use python script visuals in my power bi report and share it with a user and he is able to use the report without installing the python packages?

Hi  @newbie9292 ,

Limits according to the official documentation:

To run Python scripts in Power BI Desktop, you need to install Python on your local machine.

Did you get an answer for this? I have created a visualisation and want to share it with others who don't have Python installed.

Your PL300 states it is not required. So which is the correct answer then?

I still don't know what's the good answer.
Enable the script visuals option in the Visualization pane of Power BI Desktop

OR

Install Python on your computer ?

Thanks for "certified" answer
