Reading OneDrive files to R

问题

When I read in csv files from Dropbox into R, I right-click the file and click share Dropbox link. I then have a URL something like:

https://www.dropbox.com/blahhhhhhhhhh.csv?dl=0

So I change it to: read.csv("http://dl.dropbox.com/blahhhhhhhhhh.csv?dl=0", ...) and it works without the need to use any packages etc.

Is there a way to read files from OneDrive in a similar manner?

As when I try to read it into R it doesn't give me the data frame I'm expecting from the file.

I tested this with public OneDrive link:

download the file
get the URL in download page (Ctrl+J in Chrome):

[ enter image description here ]

paste the URL in read.csv("url...")

This works for me even when the public link changes.

OneFlow gave me "embed" in the URL, so I changed it to "download" and got the resul

None of those answers work for me, but I found an alternative solution that works.

Find the file in OneDrive online using Chrome.
Share it to anyone with the link.
Right click the … and select “download”.
Let the file download.
Press Ctrl + J to open the Downloads page in Chrome.
Find the link on that page for the file.

Use the following code to download the file.

read_url_csv <- function(url, ...){
  tmpFile <- tempfile()
  download.file(url, destfile = tmpFile)
  url_csv <- readr::read_csv(tmpFile, ...)
  return(url_csv)
}
onedrive_url <- "INSERT LINK COPIED ABOVE"
csv <- read_url_csv(onedrive)

Reddit users recommend syncing One Drive files locally and reading the local files.

That worked for me.

Have the person(s) who manage the shared location share the folder location with you. (It's possible sharing a file could work, but I haven't explored that. Folder location worked for me when testing, so that's what I recommend).
Open the shared folder in One Drive
Click "Sync"

You should now have the a local copy of those files stored on your PC and syncing online (just like Dropbox). You files will probably found in a sub-folder of this location:

C:\Users[Your user name]\
