Error when exporting data to CSV in R

I'm getting an error message when exporting data to CSV. The code I'm using is as follows:

library(jsonlite)
energy <- "https://cdn.rawgit.com/christophergandrud/networkD3/master/JSONdata/energy.json" %>% 
  fromJSON
file <- c("C://Users//x////sankeyData.txt")
write.table(energy, file, sep="\t")

The error message I'm getting is the following: Error in (function (..., row.names = NULL, check.rows = FALSE, check.names = TRUE, : arguments imply differing number of rows: 48, 68

Any ideas on what am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Variable energy is a list of two data frames (nodes with 48 rows and links with 68 rows). If you want to save this list something like this will work:

file <- c("C://Users//x////sankeyData.rds")
saveRDS(object = energy, file = file)

In case you want two data frames saved then apply function write.table twice for each data frame with different file names.
