Hi Ben,
I cannot guarantee that the function tellme would actually work for project 176. We’ve created some exceptions to allow downloading sample data, but I would have to confirm if those work in the tellme function. I expect we overlooked this.
To download the data, you should use tagme(176, update=TRUE). I think the user name and passwords are motus.sample. They should be in the book.
Tellme is meant to check whether the server has any additional data that your database do not yet have. So even if it worked for the sample project, it would give you zero if your local copy was already up to date.
With tagme, you can also create an object that you can use to query the data using dplyr functions. Those are explained in the book as well.
sql.motus <- tagme(176)
Cheers!
