This necessitates analysts creating an R-Shiny based app on GitHub containing the required chart that can then be hosted on a shiny server (currently using the DfE's account on shinyapps.io).

 As with the full dashboards, the embedded charts currently require the underlying data to be either included within the app repository on GitHub or uploaded elsewhere publicly accessible such as Google Drive or Dropbox. This currently means that any embedded charts being developed will need to use either dummy data or previously published data until the moment of publication. At the point of the parent release going live, the chart can then be updated with the latest data. Do not upload unpublished data to GitHub, Google Drive or Dropbox.
 
 As described earlier, where you need to use unpublished data in your chart prior to publication, you can either a) run the chart locally in R-Studio (without pushing the unpublished data to GitHub) or b) create a DevOps/rsconnect deploy of your app, which can be temporarily used as the embed block URL. Note, this will need updating to a URL to the public dashboard on ShinyApps ready for publication.
 
-We are currently developing a route to allow charts via R-Shiny apps to be hosted on DfE servers, such that draft publications will be able to incorporate embedded charts with the unpublished data. The data itself will then be accessed either from a SQL database on DfE servers.
