  id,
  instance = NULL,
  token = NULL,
  anonymous = FALSE,
  parse = TRUE
)

  id,
  instance = NULL,
  token = NULL,
  anonymous = FALSE,

Arguments

id	character, local ID of a status in the database
instance	character, the server name of the instance where the status is located. If NULL, the same instance used to obtain the token is used.
