invalid 'path' argument flexdashboard

[Ravua1992]

Hi All,
I am just beginning to enjoy using shiny.
I am running a shiny app on R-studio cloud and want to upload the file from my local system. The file is a C++ file.

my first question: I am using the argument accept= .cpp. Is the the correct way to implement this ? code below:

fileInput("file1", "Choose text/cpp File",
                multiple = FALSE,
                accept = c("text/csv",".cpp"))

Second question:

i am saving the .cpp file on my local computer in a www folder. The file is being uploaded, however I get the error invalid path argument.

Can someone please suggest how to resolve this issue.

Thanks a lot for the support.

I was able to resolve this using $datapath.

FAQ: How do I mark a solution?

If your question has been answered, don't forget to mark the solution! How do I mark a solution? Find the reply you want to mark as the solution and look for the row of small gray icons at the bottom of that reply. Click the one that looks like a box with a checkmark in it: [image] Hovering over the mark solution button shows the label, "Select if this reply solves the problem". If you don't see the mark solution button, try clicking the three dots button ( ••• ) to expand the full set of options. When a solution is chosen, the icon turns green and the hover label changes to: "Unselect if this reply no longer solves the problem". Success! [solution_reply_author] :information_s…
