How to load a package by M

[peeyee]

Hi, support team:

Does M have the  ability to load a package(written by other languages)?

I've searched through the docs, but didn't find any relevant information.

Hi @peeyee,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

As the query is for a way to load any external package in M-Query, there is no direct way to load any external packages or libraries written in other programming languages like Python, R, C#.

If you still need any functionality from another language, Power BI allows you to include Python or R scripts as part of your queries using which you can execute Python or R code to process data and then bring the results into Power Query.

For more details on this you can refer to the following links -

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-python-scripts

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-r-scripts

You can also use APIs, if the external functionality is exposed through REST API. We use "Web.Contents" function to implement API integration in M-Query. This fucntion sends HTTP requests and retrieves responses in JSON, XML, or other formats.

If this post helps, then please consider Accept it as the solution and give a Kudos to help the other members find it more quickly. If you have any other queries you can reach out to community forum for assistance.

Thank you.

Just Python, R and Java Script

for the others you might have to use api for sending the table and apply that code and then recive the result table (based on the language type)

No, not really, at least you can not importa a library in Power BI desktop in the same way you use npm to install JS packages. 

The closest you can get is a working with Py or R in Power BI desktop or loadin a Power Query Function Gallery, athough this has its limitations. For a very good sample visit this M Function Gallery GitHub repository.

Power BI desktop can run Py and R Scripts, but not all libraries are compatible.
