Variables/Parameters in R Script with Power BI

I have a R Shiny App and I am in the process of migrating some of the material into Power BI.  My R script is as follows:

The circled script relies on an input from the user created in the App.  Is there a way of incorporating such a variable input into Power BI as as of now i have hard coded the input.  The "input$stockout" is an input from the user which is number of days a product is out of stock and ranges from 30, 60, 90 days etc.

 

Regards,

Chris

Hi @Chitemerere! You could use What-If parameters in power bi to feed in user input to your graph 😄

Thank yo very much for your assistance, most appreciated.

 

Best regards,
