Calling the API failed for `atlas_occurrences`
# A tibble: 0 × 0
Expected behaviour
What it should do is either provide a more explicit error saying the email address is not valid, or if it the email is optional, return the tibble of 2459 occurrence records. Otherwise there is the possibility that a user will assume there are no records for the species (despite the message suggesting the API failed).
