Couldn't retrieve the data for this visual R

Hi @gmaciel

Firstly, please check:

What kind of your data sources? on-premises or online?

How do you connect to the data sources, import or direct query?

Do you install a gateway and is your gateway online?

 

Secondly,

I'd like to suggest you take a look at following links to know limitations when you use R script on power bi service.

Reference:

create R in Power BI Service

 which R packages are supported in the Power BI service and which packages are not supported.

 

Finally,

If your packages are supported, try remove dataset and report in Power BI Service,

check the data type of columns,

change to another web browser for Power BI Service,

re-publish pbix from Power BI Desktop to Service.

 

Best Regards

Maggie
