Hello,

 

Unfortunately, this is a known (to some) issue with pbiviz versions 4.0.6+. I struggled with this same issue and eventually realized the rhtml powerbi-visuals-tools template simply doesn't work in the more recent versions. I have a couple posts that dicuss this issue:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/Issue-with-R-plotly-in-pbiviz-versions-4-0-6/m-p/2940046

 

The short answer is you need to re-install powerbi-visuals-tools and specify you want version 4.0.5 ([email protected] instead of @latest), then you should be able to create a working visual by following along the guide you linked.

 

Hope this helps!
