Sorry for the delay. I may misunderstand your scenario before.

- The Power BI service applies a sandbox technology to protect users and the service from security risks.
- This sandbox approach imposes some restrictions on the R scripts running in the Power BI service, such as accessing the Internet, or accessing to other resources that are not required to create the R visual.
