The "example queries" list is not accessable without Virginia Tech login credentials. (from vignette accessed by ?query_wos, clicking on hotlink for example queries brings me to an unaccessable page) #15

Is this package even functional for you? I thought that Clarivate transitioned over to a new REST API and assumed wosr wasn't working anymore. Regarding the example queries link, I'll remove that.

You're correct, I was trying to troubleshoot but realizing now it's not functional. Thanks.

Hi @crew102, I got off the phone with Clarivate, and according to them the API is the same as before, although there is a new requirement for registering with them to gain access, and they'll send a username and password, and this takes 10-14 days. Do you think that your package could be modified to work once access is gained?

Hi Austin, I would definitely be willing to make any modifications, but I've not been able to get access in the past. Basically, I had an account when I was working at my old employer and since leaving that job, lost access. I tried signing up for an account on Clarivate's website and haven't had any luck. Are you able to register for an account?

Yes, please do keep me informed. If you're able to get an account, I'll resubmit my request and try to get one for myself.

Hi Austin, so pull_wos() is working as expected now? I just thought that Clarivate had changed the design of their API, making wosr pretty much useless.

Unfortunately I can’t add any functionality beyond what currently exists, as I no longer have access to the API. I’ve tried to get temporary access from Clarivate for the purpose of development, but they haven’t responded to my requests.
