    Hi Anonymous,

     

    To download the PGW that supports R Script as a data source, use this link: http://download.microsoft.com/download/D/D/C/DDC1B1CA-59A3-422E-9C82-4AF38A9B9F97/PowerBIGateway.exe

     

    Note that this PGW version is being retired by July 31st and you will need to download and install the new “On-premise data gateway (personal mode)” (more info) by then for refresh to continue to work. This new version of the Gateway is already available but R Script support is still not available in that new version. The team are enabling support for it over the next few weeks, so there will be zero downtime as long as you migrates to the new version when released in mid-July. :smileyhappy:

Thanks for that solution. Since the updated gateway (personal mode) does not support R script as the data source, for now, is there any work around to run R scripts with the updated Personal Gateway? We use R scripts for the majority of our reports in Power BI.

 

Thanks in advance!

I am still able to use the older version of the Personal Gateway to refresh my R-Scripts. But the R-Scripts refresh dont work with the the latest On Premise Gateway (Personal) mode. I have been looking for demos and documents regarding this, but nothing that talks about R-Script refreshes.

    Hi,

    I'm on the same situation. I have a report with R Script as data source and the schedule on my gateway (Personal) mode doesn't work. Is there a deadline to have it fixed?

     

    Thanks!
