R in Power BI Service does not work
Hi ! I have a dashboard that is using R visualisations, both "R scripts" and an R custom visual . Both visualisation types work perfectly fine in Power BI Desktop, but when in the Service I get ...
After tinkering a bit, I think the issue is related to Power BI not correctly passing column names with spaces, which cause the runtime to crash. When I removed the spaces in names, Power BI service was able to to render the visuals.
You need to use a personal gateway to run R or Python visuals on the Power BI Service.
I am a bit confused, the documentation does not mention this requirement : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/visuals/service-r-visuals . Can you please clarify?
Sorry, my bad. The limitation is for service refresh of Power Query queries containing R script, not for the rendering.
