Hi,
I've uploaded a Shiny app to RStudio Connect which has a featured to "download" an HTML report of content from the app (using the method highlighted here: https://shiny.rstudio.com/articles/generating-reports.html). It works well for me as the author and publisher of the app.
But I'd like to make the app open to "Anyone" to view and use, including the ability to download the report. When my colleague (who does not have an account set up with RStudio Connect) visits the app, she sees the content and can interact with it OK. But when she clicks the "Download" report button, she gets an error in the browser. I'm guessing this is because behind the scenes we're actually rendering the report on the server, and without a user account on RStudio Connect, she can't do this.
I wondered if it's possible to configure things to allow anonymous rendering of reports for this kind of "Download" functionality? Can the render be "run as..." a different account, for example a service account?
Thanks for your input,
Mike
