There are some examples for the Python. But none using the rjson package.

I'm Confused and have no idea on how to establish a connection and get the data in the form of csv.

I really appreciate if any expert can help me on this.

Upon searching the YELP dataset, it can only be accessed offline so the first step is to download the dataset in this link since I had trouble accessing the one on the yelp dataset.

After downloading it, you need to unzip it to access the json files and you can then open it up in R using jsonlite.

library(jsonlite)

#the path of the json file you want to access in your local computer
file <- "yelp_academic_dataset_business.json"

business <- jsonlite::stream_in(textConnection(readLines(file, n=300000)), flatten = TRUE)

glimpse(business)
