Hello All ,

My source is Anaplan data , i extract the data in CSV and do run a R-script for unpivoting the columns and then connect the updated CSV file to Power BI. 

Now , i have requirement to connect the data directly from Anaplan to Power BI.

Any Suggestions ?

 

Thanks for the help in Advance. 😄

    Thanks Anand ,

     

    But this article doesnt speak about integration with R-script . 

     

    My concern is that the data from Anaplan needs some trimming of data like adding a new column and unpivoting few columns and then need to connect that output to Power BI.

    Hi @saivivek ,

     

    I'm quite sure that you should be able to replicate all of the data transformations with Power BI's Power Query feature. Have you tried to do that?

    In the power query it is throwing error for that action and the error says action timed out.. because i have around 2,00,000 rows and im unpivoting it

    You can try to make the query with a limited amount of data once you publish the PB report online it's able to process quite a bit more data. Maybe could be an option for you. 

     

    By the way, what is stopping you from having the resulting view in Anaplan?
