how to deploy shiny app that uses local data

Question

I\'m deploying my shiny app and I don\'t know how to input my a local dataset. I keep getting Error: object \"data\" not found. Here is my path to shiny folder.

Answer 1

What I did was to write the csv under a sub folder (i.e. data/) of the shiny app directory and then added data<-read.csv("/Data/proj.csv") in server.r (as indicated in the answer). I didn't put the dot and it works.

Another thing is, when you publish it, don't forget to publish both the shiny app and the file in the shiny app folder.
