Error in R code while trying to open a password protected excel file

saachitalwar

R (1) Error in library("excel.link") : there is no package called 'excel.link'
R (1) Execution halted
R (1) The R.exe exit code (1) indicated an error.

 

this above error keeps popping up while I run the code to open an excel file in alteryx.

 

I tried the analytical app method of installing excel.link package but that didn't work either

 

any help is appreciated with this.

 

Code:

 

# install.packages(c("excel.link"),repos='https://cran.revolutionanalytics.com/',dependencies = TRUE)
library("excel.link")

df <- read.Alteryx("#1", mode="data.frame")
filename <- as.character(df[1,"FullPath"])
excel_pwd <- as.character(df[1,"excel_password"])

excel_data <- xl.read.file(filename, password = excel_pwd, write.res.password=excel_pwd)

write.Alteryx(excel_data, 1)
