R Tool - Object not found

Have some very basic code per below. The code fails however at the last line with the error: Error: R (1): Error in `[.data.frame`(inputs, i, FSYM_ID) : object 'FSYM_ID' not found. I'm sure it is something simple, however it is my first time using R in Alteryx.. The same-ish code works fine in R Studio. Thanks for your help.

 

requiredPackages <- c("gtrendsR","jsonlite","curl","stringr","lubridate","data.table","forecast","xts","zoo","scales","RODBC","dplyr")
new.packages <- requiredPackages[!(requiredPackages %in% installed.packages()[,"Package"])]
if(length(new.packages)) install.packages(new.packages, repos="https://cran.ms.unimelb.edu.au/")

library(gtrendsR)
library(jsonlite)
library(curl)
library(stringr)
library(lubridate)
library(data.table)
library(forecast)
library(xts)
library(zoo)
library(scales)
library(RODBC)
library(dplyr)

runTime_UTC <- now("UTC")

#stock parameters
inputs <- data.frame(read.Alteryx("#1",mode="data.frame"))
write.Alteryx(inputs, 1)

#global parameters
monthly <- T #frequency, set F for daily 5Y
regions <- c("","US","GB") # "" = worldwide

#iterate over inputs and generate a list of plots
outputData <- lapply(1:nrow(inputs),function(i){

FSYM_ID <- inputs[i,FSYM_ID]

..... (continued)

I'll start by saying I'm far from the first person you'd ask for R help.

 

If i understand this correctly, you have a field in your #1 input called FSYM_ID that you'd like to reference on its own. In that case:

 

FSYM_ID <- inputs[i,FSYM_ID]

should be

FSYM_ID <- inputs$FSYM_ID

 

Is that what you're going for?

That's perfect. Have changed the code to:

 

FSYM_ID <- inputs$FSYM_ID[i] 

 

And it works now. I'm guessing its a R version issue. Thanks for your help.
