I've built a flexdashboard and am trying to utilize password control/user authentication. I read over this previous question , but it seemed to have only applied to a shiny dashboard. I cannot seem to make this code work for my flexdashboard. Is it possible to create a secure password control for a flexdashboard and if so how?

    The solution that you linked will not work unless it's in a `Shiny` environment. If you are rendering a `flexdashboard` to a HTML file, you could look into password protecting a HTML file. – Matt Jan 04 '21 at 18:34

    Thanks Matt! I am doing my code in an Rmarkdown file with the following specifications towards the top. --- title: "name" output: flexdashboard::flex_dashboard: orientation: rows runtime: shiny --- Would your suggestion still be applicable in this environment? I know nothing about rendering to an html file so forgive me if the answer is obvious. – Zach Margulies Jan 04 '21 at 19:42
