Thank you very much!
Do you know how to download a file from a url where you have to supply a username and password in RStudio?

Hey Anwar, thanks a lot for the kind words, glad you like the video! I've never done this myself, so unfortunately, I don't know how to do that. I found this thread on Stack Overflow which discusses how to scrape a password-protected website. Maybe this helps: stackoverflow.com/questions/5420506/reading-information-from-a-password-protected-site

@@StatisticsGlobe Thank you very much once again for the kind reply and link (and video!). I will check this out and share with you information and code, as soon as I'm able to resolve this :).
