shinyapps setAccountInfo error

r, shiny

Solution

Make sure, you provide the correct values for all 3 Parameters in the rsconnect call, when trying to connect to your account from RStudio:

rsconnect::setAccountInfo(name='<YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME>',
              token='<YOUR_TOKEN>',
              secret='<SECRET>')

YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME: This is the name of your account as configured when creating your shinyapps.io-Account.

YOUR_TOKEN: This is a valid token. You can add/delete Tokens in your shinyapps.io - Account within your profile-settings.

SECRET: This is a generated Hash from your passphrase which you have to configure in your shinyapps.io - Account within your profile-settings as well. It must not be left empty (it initially is empty, when logging in using your Google or Github-Account). You have to explicitely click the 'show secret' Button within the Token-Page of your Profile to display the required hash-value needed for SECRET.
