How to upload a R data frame into a google drive ?

Question

I am using googledrive package from CRAN. But, function - drive_upload lets you upload a local file and not a data frame. Can anybody help with this?

Answer 1

Unfortunately I can find no way to push the dataframe up directly, but just to document for others trying to get the basics accomplished that this question touches upon is with the following code that writes a local .csv and then bounces it up through tidyverse::googledrive to express itself as a googlesheet.

write_csv(iris, 'df_iris.csv')
drive_upload('df_iris.csv', type='spreadsheet')
