kvk_export_usage: Export session usage data to CSV file

In kvkapiR: Interface to the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KvK) API

Export session usage data to CSV file

Description

Export your KvK API usage data from the current session to a CSV file for external analysis, reporting, or record keeping. Choose between summary data or detailed call-by-call data.

Usage

kvk_export_usage(file_path, format = "summary")

Arguments

file_path	Character string specifying the path where the CSV file should be saved. Can include relative or absolute paths. The file will be created if it doesn't exist, or overwritten if it does.
format	Character string specifying the export format: "summary" (default): Session summary with call counts by type and total costs. Ideal for quick reporting and budget tracking. "detailed": One row per API call with detailed information including timestamp, date, call type, and other metadata. Perfect for creating custom visualizations and detailed analysis.

Details

The exported data only includes production API calls from the current R session. Test environment calls are not included in the export. All data is session-based and will be lost when you restart R.

Summary format includes these columns:

• Search, Basisprofiel, Vestiging, Naamgeving: Call counts by type

• Total Calls: Total number of API calls in this session

• Costs (EUR): Session costs (EUR 0.02 per paid call)

Detailed format includes these columns:

• timestamp: Exact time of the API call

• date: Date of the API call

• year, month: Extracted date components

• call_type: Type of API call (search, basisprofiel, etc.)

• test_environment: Always FALSE for production calls

Value

Invisibly returns NULL. The function is called for its side effect of creating a CSV file.
