I'm new to using APIs so bear with me!

I am trying to scrape journal articles from Scopus using the package "rscopus" in R (session info below). I have a working API and institutional key but when I run my query, it gets to about 50% completion before I get this error:

"Error in get_results(query, start = init_start, count = count, verbose = verbose, : Gateway Timeout (HTTP 504)"

Any idea on how to resolve this?

Session Info R version 4.2.0 (2022-04-22 ucrt) Running under: Windows 10 x64 (build 22000)
