Given an ipums_extract object, submit an extract
request via the IPUMS API, and return a modified copy of the extract object
with the newly-assigned extract number. For an overview of ipumsr microdata API
functionality, see vignette("ipums-api", package = "ipumsr").
submit_extract(extract, api_key = Sys.getenv("IPUMS_API_KEY"))An ipums_extract object.
API key associated with your user account. Defaults to the value of environment variable "IPUMS_API_KEY".
An ipums_extract object containing the
extract definition and newly-assigned extract number of the submitted
extract.

# `submit_extract()` returns an ipums_extract object updated to include the
# extract number, so it is often useful to name the return object:
submitted_extract <- submit_extract(my_extract)
# If you didn't capture the return object of submit_extract for your most
# recent extract, you can recover that information with:
submitted_extract <- get_last_extract_info("usa")
# View the extract number
submitted_extract$number
# Check if submitted extract is ready
is_extract_ready(submitted_extract) # returns TRUE or FALSE
# Or have R check periodically until the extract is ready
