Hi,

I am trying to use CausalImpact code in Dataiku and I am getting the below error.
"

Job failed: Error in R process: simpleError : trying to use CRAN without setting a mirror

"

Below are the package and command that I am using in my code:

install.packages("CausalImpact", dependencies = TRUE)

impact <- CausalImpact(Table, pre_period, post_period)

The command works in my local (Windos OS ) but its not working in Dataiku R code recipe. Can you please help me ?

    Hi @Amar2024
    ,

    When using Dataiku, the correct way to set this up is to install your R packages within a dedicated code environment.

    Then, when you create your R notebook or R recipe, you will simply select this code environment, which will allow you to use any of the packages installed in the code environment.

    If you run into any issues, please let us know!

    Thanks,
    Sarina

    Hi @Amar2024
    ,

    Can you please attach a diagnostic for the code environment by going into Administration > Code Envs > your code environment and then selecting the following "Get diagnostic" from the "wheel" icon?

    Hi Sarina,

    As its linux platform, I was suppose to install specific version for all the dependencies of 'CausalImpact'. It was resolved by my team mate who did this in backend. No more questions.

    However, thank you for your inputs.
