Sharepoint files

[mmc00]

Hello!

I would like to now how can I handle if a Sharepoint URL changes. For example, I have an private url from Sharepoint that I can download throught the Microsoft365R package. My current plan is something like this:

list(
tar_target(
obj_download,
"https://sharepoint.com/***",
format = "url"
)
)

But the obj_download fails, because it tries to get it but needs the credentials from Microsoft365R. If I keep it just as string, I don't keep the track if the file has change.

An alternative to the URL format would be something like

tar_target(
  obj_download,
  download_file(),
  cue = tarchetypes::tar_cue_force(condition = etag_file())
)

where download_file() is a custom function to download the data and etag_file() is a custom function to get the ETag. Both would use Microsoft365R.
