download data issue

[spirosparaskevas]

library(kaggler)

kgl_auth(username = "spirosparaskevas", key = "5c4359b2493e0d4c73fef611273f09e8")

KAGGLE_USERNAME={"spirosparaskevas"}
KAGGLE_KEY={"************************"}

comps <- kgl_competitions_list(search = "kkbox")
comps

c1_datalist <- kgl_competitions_data_list(comps$id[2])
c1_datalist
c1_data <- kgl_competitions_data_download(id = comps$id[2], fileName = c1_datalist$name[1])

final command gives an error: ->

Error in if (is.character(txt) && length(txt) == 1 && nchar(txt, type = "bytes") < : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed

Any suggestion???

Similar problem for me:

library(tidyverse)
library(kaggler)

comps1 <- kgl_competitions_list() 
c1_datalist <- kgl_competitions_data_list(comps1$id[1])
c1_data <- kgl_competitions_data_download(
  comps1$id[1], c1_datalist$name[1])

Error: lexical error: invalid char in json text.

Same here. I end up writing my own function:
