As reported by Thierry

Probably purely due to the vignettes being dependent on a database connection/credentials for the API.

@peterdesmet Could we pre-render the vignettes for r-universe?

[peterdesmet]

Right, we could use the frictionless approach and pre-render our vignettes, see https://github.com/frictionlessdata/frictionless-r/blob/main/vignettes/precompile.R

[PietrH]

2 options, either pre-render our vignettes, like frictionless-r, see: https://ropensci.org/blog/2019/12/08/precompute-vignettes/

Or use vcr cassettes, and use a stored HTTP response:
