Error while running script

[nuskindlin]

Hi, 

I was trying to run this text mining script (https://towardsdatascience.com/topic-modeling-in-power-bi-using-pycaret-54422b4e36d6). I tried installing matplotlib, numpy, pandas (via pip and conda) through the Anaconda prompt and each time I seem to get a different error based on how I install them. The current error I have is below:

DataSource.Error: ADO.NET: Python script error.

Please install mkl-service package, see http://github.com/IntelPython/mkl-service

Hi,

the short answer is that the solution is launching the Power BI Desktop executable from the Anaconda Prompt after activating the environment in which you want to run the Python script.

The long one is described in this blog post.

I think you have unsupported Python packages versions.

Please go to this link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/service-python-packages-support

and install PowerBI supported Python packages versions.

I hope this helps 🙂

Hey @v-alq-msft not sure if you had the chance to look at my comment above? Currently my Python script runs indefinitely in Power BI until it timed out even though there are only 300 rows of data. I had managed to run the script just fine on Jupyter Notebook within the same Anaconda environment. I had also referred to this post https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Microsoft-PowerBI-Scripting-Python-Exceptions/m-p/850714 to add in the PATH environment variables but the issue still persists. Do you have any advice? Thank you~

Hi, @nuskindlin 

Based on the error message, it seems that the corresponding package failed to import. I'd like to suggest you refer to the following documents for further help. Do pay attention to the considerations and limitations.

Run Python scripts in Power BI Desktop 

Use Python in Query Editor 

Use an external Python IDE with Power BI 

Create Power BI visuals by using Python 

Create visuals by using Python packages in the Power BI service 

Best Regards

Hi @v-alq-msft (Allan), Thanks for sending those links! It pointed me to the right direction and I managed to resolve the package issues through my Anaconda prompt. Currently there seems to be no more error when I am running my Python script in Power BI, but it loads indefinitely. Would you be able to help?
