R packages in the Power BI service

Is there a way to add extra R packages to Power BI service.

I see that the following packages are supported:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/service-r-packages-support

 

But I want to create alluvail diagrams where the tails can be NA. This is not possible with the supportet Alluvial package. However this is possible with ggalluvial or ggsankey.

Hi @jensgoemaere ,

Regarding your question, Desktop can use any R package. In Power BI Service, only the supported R packages in the list can be used. You need to submit your request to Microsoft Fabric Ideas.
