Quarto errors out when calling DT inline

R Markdown
,
#1

In my quarto document, the following code works when I render the chuck.

```{r da-table, echo=FALSE, message=FALSE}

atsi.need <- datatable(iris)

atsi.need

but , outside of the chunk this gives me the following error:


Under ESSA student groups are identified for Additional Targeted Support and Improvement. 

`r atsi.need`

and the error message is

Error in rep_len(label, length(meta)) : 
  cannot replicate NULL to a non-zero length
Calls: .main ... in_dir -> inline_exec -> sew -> <Anonymous> -> knit_meta_add
Execution halted

Your object is a datatable from DT - it can be used inline in knitr - it needs to be added in a chunk.
Inline chunk are only for string output (or one that could be coerced to string)

Do this

Under ESSA student groups are identified for Additional Targeted Support and Improvement. 
```r
atsi.need
```
