How to link table panels in R Shiny Dashboard using reactable to filter data in table 2 based on click in table 1?


I have an R dashboard with two panels. Each panel displays a table showing a different data frame. Table 1 shows all players with their team affiliation and total score. Table 2 shows the scores of each player in more detail across multiple games. The sum of the scores of a player in Table 2 matches the score in Table 1. I would like to set up Table 1 so that clicking on a name switches the panel to Table 2 and filters it by the corresponding name. Is this possible, and if so, how?
