This was in today's patentsview newsletter: IMPORTANT NOTICE: The PatentsView Legacy API will be retired on Feb. 12, 2025. We encourage users still using the Legacy API to begin converting to our new PatentSearch API as early as possible to avoid any potential downtime.

The new version of the API is still buggy so who knows how firm that date is.

I could submit a PR to get the tests passing again, I noticed they failed on Maëlle's PR. Or can the in-progress PR be salvaged?

Hey Russ, thanks for the heads up on this. I'd like to wait for the new version to settle down as much as possible before we do more on porting things over. Can we revisit this closer to the deadline?

Sure, waiting is fine. The tests are passing in my repo, I've been doing pushes as they've made changes.

One thing I didn't catch initially is that they've changed the name of the API with this most recent release. Not sure if that has any bearing on the R package. Can we be the package formerly known as patentsview or something?

It's all working to the extent it can. There's a new endpoint that is totally broken and on some endpoints you can't request all the fields without an error being thrown. I have tests that will fail when bugs are fixed and I've tried to keep the code working and tests passing as they've made changed. I've also reworked the vignettes and added a few new ones, they're published on my github pages.
