Details

pin_get() retrieves a pin by name and, by default, from the local board. You can use the board parameter to specify which board to retrieve a pin from. If a board is not specified, it will use pin_find() to find the pin across all boards and retrieve the one that matches by name.

Examples

# define temporary board
board <- legacy_temp()
pin(mtcars, board = board)

# retrieve the mtcars pin
pin_get("mtcars", board = board)
