Reading OneDrive files to R

Question

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:

Answer 1

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)
