Check Update Date in Data for Regions REDcap Project

Description

check_date_updated() checks whether the supplied date (today, by default) matches the date_updated record for the specified region in the Data for Regions REDcap project.

Usage

check_date_updated(
  date = Sys.Date(),
  api_token = Sys.getenv("redcap_DFR_token"),
  region = "MSR",
  date_updated = "date_updated",
  quiet = FALSE,
  vac = FALSE
)

Arguments

date	The date to check against; defaults to Sys.Date(), which is probably what you want
api_token	The API token for accessing the Data for Regions REDcap project. This should be stored in an .Renviron file; see env_vars for details.
region	The region to check for; exists to aid internal implementation and should probably not be changed from default
date_updated	The name of the record containing the date updated in REDcap; this exists to aid internal implementation and should probably not be changed from default
quiet	By default, warnings are issued if date does not match, and a message is issued if it does; should these be silenced?
vac	Should vaccination data be checked (TRUE), or NBS data (FALSE, the default)?

Value

TRUE if dates match, FALSE otherwise
