I was following this tutorial about how to use a pre-published Machine Learning Studio web service to score a bunch of rows in Power BI.
I am using an R script with the correct workspace id (wsid) and authentication code (authorization token) of my Machine Learning Studio web service.
The R script is the following:
wsid = "<mywsid>"
auth = "<myauthtoken>"
serviceName = "<myservicename>"
library("AzureML")
ws <- workspace(wsid,auth)
ds <- consume(services(ws, name = serviceName),dataset)
ds<-data.frame(ds,dataset)
#output<-data.frame(ds$Sentiment,ds$Score)
However, when I run my R script I get the following error:
DataSource.Error: ADO.NET: R script error.
Error: AzureML returns error code:
HTTP status code : 401
Execution halted
Details:
DataSourceKind=R
DataSourcePath=R
Message=R script error.
Error: AzureML returns error code:
HTTP status code : 401
Execution halted
ErrorCode=-2147467259
ExceptionType=Microsoft.PowerBI.Scripting.R.Exceptions.RScriptRuntimeException
What am I doing wrong? I feel like this might be an authentication problem (code 401), but in the tutorial I mentioned, this does not happen.
Hi @FaCoffee ,
Please checkwhether you install the AzureML package in your local R (or server) using install.packages command, and you also need to checkwhether your workspace , service name and authenticaltion token are correct.

Hi all, I checked these and they are all correct, but the error still remains.
