Value

A logical, TRUE or FALSE

Arguments

what

(character) One of status (default), content, or an HTTP status code. If status, we just check that the HTTP status code is 200, or similar signifying the service is up. If content, we do a simple, quick check to determine if returned content matches what's expected. If an HTTP status code, it must match an appropriate code. See status_codes().

...

Curl options passed on to crul::verb-GET

key

(character) NCBI Entrez API key. optional. See get_uid()

HTTP version for NCBI requests

We hard code http_version = 2L to use HTTP/1.1 in HTTP requests to the Entrez API. See curl::curl_symbols('CURL_HTTP_VERSION')

Details

For ITIS, see ritis::description, which provides number of scientific and common names in a character string.
