Error when pulling multiple seasons

[mm0708]

I have a list of 864 gameIds I am trying to scrape in a list named game_ids.

Using the command

nflscrapR <- do.call(rbind, lapply(game_ids, function(x) scrape_json_play_by_play(x)))

I get the following error at some point during the scrape:

Error in "extra_point_good" : argument "table" is missing, with no default

Might be helpful to know the game ID(s) where this error occurs. Does the error persist if you only try to pull the data for that single game? A reproducible example will be helpful.

Also, remember that the already-compiled data lives here: https://ryurko.github.io/nflscrapR-data/

I went back and tried the same set of games as yesterday when I encountered the error but instead used a for loop (gross).

nflscrapR <- data.frame() for(i in 1:length(game_ids)) { game <- game_ids[i] scrape <- scrape_json_play_by_play(as.character(game_ids[i])) nflscrapR <- rbind(nflscrapR, scrape) }

This produced the desired result while the do.call() example above does not. Normally if I am only gathering a single season the do.call and apply method works without error. Perhaps I just got a bit unlucky with a network hiccup while I was taking in all the games. In any case, I'll close this error.

Okay, thanks, let us know if this issue persists.
