token

Every user should have their own Oauth (Twitter API) token. By default token = NULL this function looks for the path to a saved Twitter token via environment variables (which is what 'create_token()' sets up by default during initial token creation). For instruction on how to create a Twitter token see the tokens vignette, i.e., 'vignettes("auth", "rtweet")'.
