R: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

Question

I use script for Google Analytics auth from here with small changes:

library(googleAuthR)
library(googleAnalyticsR)

setwd("C:/seo_bi")

file.exists('humbertoharbert.json')

gar_auth_service(
  json_file = 'humbertoharbert.json',
  scope = "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/analytics"
)

And get an exeption:

> file.exists('humbertoharbert.json')
[1] TRUE
> gar_auth_service(
+   json_file = 'humbertoharbert.json',
+   scope = "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/analytics"
+ )
Error in normalizePath(path.expand(path), winslash, mustWork) : 
  path[1]="": The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

File is in the working directory. The filename is correct. OS is Windows 10. Cannot find the solution. Please, help.

UPD. Result for function from exeption:

 >normalizePath(path.expand('humbertoharbert.json'))
[1] "C:\\seo_bi\\humbertoharbert.json"

Source code of gar_auth_service function is here https://github.com/MarkEdmondson1234/googleAuthR/blob/f77910fa3255f72a2ed20b0a180885cfbbf763d4/R/googleAuthR_auth.R — Ivan Kutas, Dec 22 '16 at 15:20
There does look to be an issue with capitalisation and normalizePath https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16369 — MarkeD, Dec 22 '16 at 17:26
There was bug with service account file. There was no private_key. I changed json file for correct one and now it works. — Ivan Kutas, Jan 05 '17 at 14:50
