It can be hard to determine how to format a user geojson properly so that it works in the get_raster function. It would be useful add an example to the documentation (README or vignette) that outlines how to convert from an .shp to a .geojson with the correct format for the API.
The below is a rough example of converting a .shp (saved locally) to a .geojson using geojsonsf and then wrapping the result in a "{geojson: ... }" tag for use in with theget_raster` function.

# load FAO Major Region 34 shapefile from file
fao_34_from_shp <- sf::read_sf('~/FAO_34_NOCOASTLINE.shp')
# convert to GEOJSON using `geojsonsf` package
fao_34_geojson <- geojsonsf::sf_geojson(fao_34_from_shp)
# wrap geojson in geojson tag `{"geojson": ....}`
fao_34_tagged <- paste0('{"geojson":', fao_34_geojson,'}')
