get_workday_report: Retrieve a report via the Workday RaaS
In blakiseskream/workdayr: Query Workday from R

Query's the Workday Report As a Service API. A tutorial on how to use this API is located here This function specifically uses httr::GET(httr::write_disk()) to return the result as a file_path to the saved report. After you get the response you can use a readr function to read the result such as readr::read_csv. Note that this endpoint has been producing SSL errors. The httr::GET() request is wrapped in a purrr::safely() to write the file to disk regardless of error.
