It would be great if Power Bi reports and dashboards that contain R visuals and R scripts could be refreshed through the Enterprise Gateway.

Many enterprises are still heavily SAS shops. The easiest way to import SAS datasets is an R script. Please, implement this, as some of our SAS users will not export in any other format.

Is this idea even being looked at?
It would be really useful for a scheduled refresh to be set rather than having to use a personal gateway.

RE: Refresh Power BI Dashboard that contain R scripts via Enterprise Gateway

Hi Microsoft Team,
Refreshing reports containing R script on the service is a must to make this functionality more than a gadget. Until now we had a workaround by using a Personal gateway installed on a windows server (not perfect as the Personal gateway is not as stable as the on-premises one, but it was still working).
However, since the Gateway update from 24 Oct.2018 (3000.0.144.3) even this is not working anymore!!! We don’t understand if there was a bug with this version, or this is an intended behaviour, which would be very irrational as we understood that Ms wants to push these R/Python integrations further
Please give us more visibility on your development plans!
Thanks

And even better if no gateway was needed: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/32802307-r-skript-datasource-run-r-script-transformation
