    Hi anne,

     

    Currently, R visuals in Power BI Desktop has a few limitations:

    • Data size limitations – data used by the R visual for plotting is limited to 150,000 rows. If more than 150,000 rows are selected, only the top 150,000 rows are used and a message is displayed on the image.

    For more details about these limitations, you can refer to this article.:smileyhappy:

This doesn't answer the question here. The question asked was:

 

"Is there a limit to the number of rows that I can feed into R?"

 

But the response is how many rows an R visual can plot. These are NOT the same thing.

 

Is the limit the number of rows I can feed into R, or the number of rows I can plot? If I bring in 500k rows, summarize them in R, and then try to plot less than 150k rows, will I hit a limit?
