Hello,
I was using the taxize library in the R statistical programming language last week - specifically the sci2comm() function, which returns common names from a scientific name. I am now getting NULLs when I was getting answers last week. I suppose it is related to the updated website.
Also all along I have been getting errors like this one:
Using default key: Please get your own API key via use_eol()
How do I get my own API key?
I am no admin but pasting your exact API query would help them on figuring out your problem.
Also check out the new API document.
https://eol.org/docs/what-is-eol/data-services/classic-apis
@woodpusher I’m the taxize maintainer . The EOL functionality in taxize is broken now because the EOL API’s have changed - Some taxize functions I’ll be able to fix, some I wont, or may be able to fix (e.g., the hierarchy_entries API route is gone, but may be coming back EOL Data services - #7 by hammockj )
You can install the development version from github:
remotes::install_github("ropensci/taxize")
