I usually use R script to do some data manipulation or data cleaning after loading the data into power BI desktop. Everything works OK until I upload my report to Power BI server. I will have to use a personal gateway to make the script running which based on my understanding, when I schedule the data refresh, I have to leave my computer on? Can we somehow make R as an on-premises data gateway or use some other method that make Power BI service execute the R script without going through my own computer?
