Details
Users can generate a personal API token from the Profile Settings page of ActivityInfo's user interface. This token is used instead of a password when connecting to the ActivityInfo API.
Note, in general, you c("list("never")", "include your API token") in an R source file or check such sources with tokens into version control.
When run interactively and prompt = TRUE, you will be prompted to store the token locally on your device. This avoids the need to provide the token each time you run a script. The token is stored in plaintext, however, so you should only agree to store your token when your device is properly secured with a screenlock and not shared with others.
Examples
activityInfoToken("<API TOKEN>")
