The ClickUp API requires a personal access token (PAT)
to be sent with each API request.
The cu_set_pat function uses Sys.setenv to set
the CU_PAT environment variable for other processes
called from within R or future calls to Sys.getenv from the same
R process. cu_get_pat is used to retrieve the PAT for the API calls.
Arguments
- token
ClickUp personal access token or an access token from the OAuth flow. The
CU_PATenvironment variable is used whenNULL.
Value
cu_set_pat returns logical similarly to Sys.setenv().
cu_get_pat returns the ClickUp PAT that will look something like
pk_4753994_EXP7MPOJ7XQM5UJDV2M45MPF0YHH5YHO.
When token is not NULL it will simply pass through the token value
and not look for the CU_PAT environment variable.
