Is it intended that occ_count() can not take multiple facet arguments like occ_search can?

Is it intended that occ_count() can not take multiple facet arguments like occ_search can?
If I supply with c("","") it says that I need to format as A;B but that gives me an error, too. (see below)

@andzandz11 Thanks for pointing this out.

I do not remember if it is intended.

In any case, there should be a better error message, so I will mark it as a bug.

You can always make to multiple calls to occ_count(), or just use occ_search().

I think I sort of intended occ_count() to be a simple wrapper for occ_search(facet="x"), so I am not sure if I will support multiple values (because I am not a big fan of how they work in rgbif in the first place).
