Can i use R if my source is live SSAS?

Hi ovonel,

I see a similar question over here:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Using-R-to-transform-data-from-an-azure-live-connection/m-p/926622#M444091 

Does the answer there resolve your question as well?

Hi, Anonymous 

You can run R in live SSAS.

The scene of R used in powerbi:
Use R in Power Query Editor - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Create Power BI visuals using R - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Since your data source is live ssas, then we don't talk the first feature. As for the second feature, you can try it and use R to create forecast data in visual.

Create advanced analytics and visualizations using R scripts - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Of course, you can also try to use the ML function in premium, here are some tutorials for reference:

Use Machine Learning and Cognitive Services with dataflows - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

If you still have problem, please feel free to ask me.

Best Regards
