nearest_neighbours function 'Error: The API is currently unavailable'

[scott-STC]

Hi

We are using this package in RStudio behind a proxy. We have configured RStudio to use the proxy and if we pass the argument proxy_settings = 'none' through to the functions we're calling it works except for the nearest_neighbours where we keep getting 'Error: The API is currently unavailable'.

I'm not sure if the nearest_neighbours function is not passing the correct argument value to the fingertips_ensure_api_available function to check if the API is available as we normally get the 'Error: The API is currently unavailable' if proxy_settings = 'default'.

Any advice or help would be appreciated.

Hi

I am also getting the error !?
Error: The API is currently unavailable

I ran the following lines, keeping it very simple to receive the error.
library(fingertipsR)
phofR <- fingertips_data(ProfileID = 19)

I have also tried proxy_settings = 'none' with no further success.
I also made sure I was running the latest available version of the fingertipsR package 1.0.10.9002

Not sure what the next step should be. Am I missing something?
