EDIT: Whoops, my fault - the test species I used happened to be synonyms that didn't return results from IUCN! Ignore the below!

Thanks for a great tool. Since I last used the package, something seems to have changed, as the $result element now returns NULL. See below.

$result
list()

I have used two different API keys, one I know was working previously, and a new one (that has been idle for a few months). I did iterate through several hundred species on the first run (with an error in the code meaning I can see if the first few worked), but even several minutes to half an hour later I get the same result.

Issue resolved, my test species were synonyms and weren't resolved by IUCN.

@git-og nice job figuring it out
