Stores an authentication token in a process environment variable named
"<service>_<name>". The token is never written to disk. If a non-empty
variable with that name already exists, the function refuses to overwrite it
unless overwrite = TRUE (e.g. to rotate an expired token).
Usage
af_store_token(name, token, service = "apifetch", overwrite = FALSE)
Arguments
- name
The identifier for this token (e.g. a dataset or resource name).
- token
The authentication token (character).
- service
A namespace prefix grouping tokens for one API. Default
"apifetch".
- overwrite
Replace an existing token? Default FALSE.
Value
Invisibly NULL; called for its side effect.
Examples
bdpe <- af_store_token("dengue", "your-token-here", service = "BigDataPE")
#> ✔ Token stored in environment variable: `BigDataPE_dengue`
