Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 1

Unable to knit a notebook. Does this have to do with the network path names that RStudio is using? if so is there a way to hard code paths using letter names?

I think this is among issues where rendering from Network drive with Pandoc is not really working.

From C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpSo54Wh I understand you are on Windows, and you are trying to use network drives //server/home/abc123/. It seems this lead to path like \server\home\abc123\ and Pandoc does not handle them
I believe the issue is from the first \

pandoc.exe: \: openBinaryFile: invalid argument (Invalid argument)

Can you maybe try to mound your network folder as a Drive on your computer, with a letter ? e.g Z://abc123/... ?

This could solve the issue.

You could follow the different Network issue opened at quarto-cli and rmarkdown to see when we manage to resove this network path usage with Pandoc
