auth.Rd
auth
asks the API's server for a session ID (SID), which you can then
pass along to either query_wos
or pull_wos
. Note,
there are limits on how many session IDs you can get in a given period of time
(roughly 5 SIDs in a 5 minute period).
auth(username = Sys.getenv("WOS_USERNAME"), password = Sys.getenv("WOS_PASSWORD"))
username | Your username. Specify |
---|---|
password | Your password. Specify |
A session ID
# NOT RUN { # Pass user credentials in manually: auth("some_username", password = "some_password") # Use the default of looking for username and password in envvars, so you # don't have to keep specifying them in your code: Sys.setenv(WOS_USERNAME = "some_username", WOS_PASSWORD = "some_password") auth() # }
