pbiviz --create-cert error

[Onno]

Hi all,

Need help with the following error given to me when using the command:

pbiviz --create-cert

Since I have very little experience with command prompt coding, I am looking to create a custom powerBI visual with r embedded code, but rely on your expertise to help me or if the rror is in node.js can you send a link to where I may find a fix? System I'm running on is windows 8, 64 bit.

Thank you,

We will investigate this issue from our side and get back.

As a short term solution please install the previous version of pbiviz by executing this command:

npm i -g [email protected]

No it didn't and i figured out my issue was from openssl. Thanks!

Windows 7

As far as I know, Windows 7 requires an installed OpenSSL to generate a certificate.

You can find documentation here.
