Searching for data within Dataverse is quite easy using the
dataverse_search() function. The simplest searches simply
consist of a query string:
library("dataverse")
Sys.setenv("DATAVERSE_SERVER" = "dataverse.harvard.edu")
dataverse_search("Gary King")[c("name")]## 10 of 3676 results retrieved## name
## 1 004_informal_food_retail_Nigeria_2018.tab

## 10 03 Brienne Collection letterlocking data: Images folder 08/16, DB-1455_02–DB-1564_01The results are paginated, so users can rely upon the
per_page and start argument to requested
subsequent pages of results. We’ll start at 6 and to show that we
retrieve the last five results from the previous query plus 15 more (due
to per_page = 20):
