R integration guide
Hello,
I am interested into running ML-driven forecasts for data coming from a simple cube using R. From this article from the Board 12 reference manual, I see that it is possible:
However, being new to Board and R in general, I struggle to understand where to start and haven't found any guide / steps detailing how to build a simple example.
Can someone help me out on this or redirect me to some documentation/webinar I could've missed?
Thank you in advance!

Hello Mathieu!
Thank you for posting in the community.
I am not aware of a seminar guiding you through each step of using R in Board.
However, there are a few tips / questions that could help / help me understand the problem you are facing:
- Have you successfully installed R and RServe on some/your local machine?
- If so, what does the Test-Connection button in the procedure step reveal? It should say:
3. Have you tried saving the layout in the R-environment first? (e.g. write.csv(FrameTest, "C:/dataset/testframe.csv) , where FrameTest is the mapped DataFrame-name to your Layout)
4. Make sure the DataFrame you load back into Board is converted to all string coulmns in the last step of the R-Script.
5. What Board Version are you using?
Hope to be able to help more once you provide some feedback.
Best regards,
Filip

Hello Filip,
Thank you for your input and your direct help.
For others interested in the resolution, I will for now modify my Board configuration to run on my local machine, as there are otherwise complications when trying to connect to a local installation of RServe.
I'll post some updates when I'm more advanced.
Best,
Mathieu

Hello Mathieu,
the Board instance should send a requests via the Internet to open a session on Rserver and execute code. The R-server must be reachble from the Internet (or via DNS or via public IP) and the Rserve deamon must be listening on TCP/6311 (default).
