An easier way to build a Flex dashboard is to create a new R Markdown project in R Studio, then go to From Template and select Flex Dashboard. That way, you will be presented with an R code editor where you can easily import data frames and files from your project's environment and render them in your dashboard as shown in the image below.

You can even switch to the visual editor if that is what you prefer.

I hope this helps!
