Download data underlying plotly graph in R

Question

I am using plotly in Rmarkdown. When I plot a graph, id there a way to download the underlying data ?

library(plotly)
x <- c(1:100)
random_y <- rnorm(100, mean = 0)
data <- data.frame(x, random_y)
p <- plot_ly(data, x = ~x, y = ~random_y, type = 'scatter', mode = 'lines')

Typically in the plot above I would like to get the data data.frame in some csv format

I'm pretty sure that's not a standard functionality of plotly. But you could add a DT::datatable to your Rmarkdown, since that does come with export buttons: https://rstudio.github.io/DT/extensions.html#buttons — David Klotz, Aug 12 '19 at 13:13

You can embed the CSV file into your Rmarkdown HTML using this function: yihui.name/en/2018/07/embed-file.
