I am wondering if and how I can run a shiny app on the SharePoint of my company. I tried to work with a flexdashboard following this post. I managed to make this work with a simple app but not with my own app.
My app does not have static data, but retrieves data via API's, which I guessed was the reason a flexdashboard won't work (correct me if I'm wrong).
I have no experience in publishing/deploying shiny apps other than on shinyapps.io. In this case this will not be an option since the data is sensitive.
What are the options for me to make the app run on SharePoint?
Many thanks in advance.

Host your Shiny apps on the web in minutes with Shinyapps.io. It is easy to use, secure, and scalable. No hardware, installation, or annual purchase contract required.
Yes! A shiny app can be put in an iframe in another website from RStudio Connect. In order to put the app in an iframe, it is recommended to add a content URL, because you can move it to another piece of content should the need arise.
We currently host 100% of shinyapps.io in Amazon's AWS US-East region. We intend to make it possible to deploy your applications in different regions, depending on the demand for the regions.
For now I decided to host my app on shinyapps.io and added a login form to my app. This way the data in the app is still secure and not view-able for unwanted visitors.
I am still open for alternatives, so please let me know if there are any!
