rscorecard (version 0.26.0)

sc_get: Get scorecard data.

Description

This function gets the College Scorecard data by compiling and converting all the previous piped output into a single URL string that is used to get the data.

Usage

sc_get(
  sccall,
  api_key,
  debug = FALSE,
  print_key_debug = FALSE,
  return_json = FALSE
)

Arguments

sccall

Current list of parameters carried forward from prior functions in the chain (ignore)

api_key

Personal API key requested from https://api.data.gov/signup stored in a string. If you first set your key using sc_key, then you may omit this parameter. A key set here will take precedence over any set in the environment (DATAGOV_API_KEY).

debug

Set to true to print and return API call (URL string) rather than make actual request. Should only be used when debugging calls.

print_key_debug

Only used when debug == TRUE. Default masks the api_key value. Set to TRUE to print the full API call string with the api_key unmasked.

return_json

Return data in JSON format rather than as a tibble.

Obtain a key

To obtain an API key, visit https://api.data.gov/signup

Examples

if (FALSE) {
sc_get('')
key <- ''

}
