  • Error: could not find function … in R

    10 answers




I am trying to work with JSON in R Studio and have installed the RJSONIO and Rcurl packages successfully but the getURL function is not working. I keep getting an error saying that the getURL function cannot be found.



  package ‘RCurl’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
Warning in install.packages :
cannot remove prior installation of package ‘RCurl’

> AccidentURL <- "http://data.maryland.gov/api/views/pdvh-tf2u/rows.json?
accessType=DOWNLOAD"
> apiResult <- getURL(AccidentURL)
Error in getURL(AccidentURL) : could not find function "getURL"


Any suggestions on how to get this function to work or how to build the function myself would be appreciated.

Users with the  r badge can single-handedly close r questions as duplicates and reopen them as needed.

StackExchange.ready(function() {
if (StackExchange.options.isMobile) return;

$('.dupe-hammer-message-hover:not(.hover-bound)').each(function() {
var $hover = $(this).addClass('hover-bound'),
$msg = $hover.siblings('.dupe-hammer-message');

$hover.hover(
function() {
$hover.showInfoMessage('', {
messageElement: $msg.clone().show(),
transient: false,
position: { my: 'bottom left', at: 'top center', offsetTop: -7 },
dismissable: false,
relativeToBody: true
});
},
function() {
StackExchange.helpers.removeMessages();
}
);
});
});
