RStudio Pilot migration – re-publishing your app
This article details the steps to re-publish your shiny app from the data-viz.it.wisc.edu RStudio Connect server to the public shinyapps.io server.
Re-publishing your Shiny app on shinyapps.io
If you want to continue having your Shiny app published after the pilot ends, you will need to move it from the data-viz.it.wisc.edu server to the server at shinyapps.io. The basic tier is free of charge and lets you deploy up to 5 apps and 25 active hours per month.
Publishing to shinyapps.io involves the same steps you followed to publish to data-viz.it.wisc.edu:
-
Create an account with shinyapps.io.
-
Follow the directions here to configure your shinyapps.io account.
-
When you are ready to publish, open RStudio Preferences, go to the Preferences tab, select your shinyapps.io account, click Connect.
-
When you are ready to publish, click the Publish button. Your Shiny app will deploy to shinyapps.io.
