On PowerBi Desktop we can get data using Python Scripts, but after published we can't schedule a refresh data for this connection. The PowerBI returns: "Query contains unknown funtion name: Python.Execute." It would be better if all features on desktop would work on web too.

- bdietz1New MemberExactly this. Not having the ability to run Python via the web access is a great hindrance. Please add this capability
- sebastiaan_schmNew MemberYes please!
- pbiideas1New MemberAlso the Python visualizations don't work once the web app is published
- metalbuckeyeNew MemberI just had to rewrite a huge python script in R because I thought that it would be supported instead of only partially supported. Should really let people know that it's not ready in the service.
- kimsong_lyNew MemberIt's cool to have Python in Power BI Desktop, but if it doesn't work on Power Bi Service, it's pointless!
- pbiideas1New MemberSeriously!? Why would you even put this in preview and not have the the web/service be able to utilize it? Virtually useless...
- Patrick_McCardyNew MemberThis is a very good idea that MS should implement.
- neckerNew MemberYes! This is very much needed if the python feature will be of use to our company.
- cory_beyerNew MemberWe need this ASAP!! Please
- syedgjRegular VisitorYea I was assuming this would be possible in the Service at the same time as the Desktop.
