Integration of Power BI with "R"

Now a days "R" become very powerful language for data analysis. Greater dis-advantage with "R" is not so powerful in Data Visualization. So Power BI will act as complementary with "R" if we do tight integration between two (R - Machine Learning and Power BI is Visualizing the result). This is how to utilize power of "R" in Power BI Desktop. Thought of following ways

• Run "R" script on top of data which we have in Power BI and Store result back into Power BI (Power BI plays role of data integration with various end points)
• Store result of "R" script back into Power BI for better visualization - Reports, Dashboards

RE: Integration with "R" language

You already have this ability to do this in the query editor using the "Run R Script" in the Transform ribbon.

It would definitely be helpful to run an R analysis on data already loaded into Power BI, then output the results to visualise in the standard Power BI visualisations with their built-in interactivity
