R Support in Statistica Server

Statistica and Statistica Server are based on identical Statistica libraries, and support identical functionality. This is true for R support in Statistica as well: you can execute R in Statistica Server in much the same way as from desktop (thick-client) Statistica.

For example, sign into Statistica Server, and select File > Upload Document to Server and then run. Or select File > Create/Run/Schedule script and copy text from standalone.r which is available in the R folder. This folder is located in the Statistica executable directory, for example, c:\Program Files\Statistica\Statistica 13\Examples\R.

Important: Make sure to save a new script with the .R extension.

Note that this script does not require a data file. If you are using ActiveDataSet or Spreadsheet() extensions, keep in mind that the data sources have to be located on the server. Spreadsheet() should reference data sets by their Statistica Server URL paths; ActiveDataSet will be mapped to the spreadsheet that you open in Statistica Server, but this can be overridden by a parameter of the same name passed to the R script from SVB. Also, in order to execute any scripts in Statistica Server, the user must have the proper permissions on the server.
