Request to automate R script in pbix #1

Closed varunbeesu closed 6 years ago

Great work by dubravcik, working perfectly for me. Thank you very much for your contribution.

I have another request regarding R-script. I have to refresh daily pbix file and run R-script manually as I am unable to run r-script at published place automatically. Is it possible to run R-script after refreshing pbix file from your script? Thanks in advance

Oh, I'm not having the same joy. The reason isn't your solution more that I've no experience with Python, so struggling a bit there.

Hi @varunbeesu, I tried to add a simple R-script to my dashboard and it worked for me - the R script was executed automatically when Power BI opened. As I am not an R user, maybe it doesn't work like that in all cases. I am not sure how should I update the solution to have R-script refreshed in general. Can you maybe describe how do you refresh it manually? If you attach sample notebook, it would be helpful. Thanks
