Upload bigger files in shiny

I am trying to create a local desktop app via shiny and RInno where user should be able to upload excel files in the database and get some basic reports.

I don't need much space but if I could upload files of like 50 to 80 mb than I am fine with it. But it tells me Maximum upload size exceeded

since I am just building an inhouse local app on a computer with 8gb ram I should be able to manupulate more data. Is there a way I can capture the full name of file with path and uploaded it in local session

Please do reply any idea would help me.

and yes please ignore the error that has nothing to do with it.

I found the answer

I just have to add this line of code in the shiny app to change the default size of files uploaded.

options(shiny.maxRequestSize=100*1024^2)
