Response properties/values missing from get_dataset

[Archaeo-Programmer]

Some of the response properties or values that might be returned using get_dataset seem to be missing. For example, MP <- get_dataset(datasettype='pollen surface sample', gpid = "Colorado"), returns 4 records. In MP$368$dataset.meta, there is dataset.id, dataset.name, collection.type, collection.handle, and dataset.type; however, collection.id (or CollUnitID) is not there. It also does not occur in any other list or data frame.

Do you need this response property in particular? The Collection Handle is also unique. We streamlines some of the response properties in the package, but could expand the objects to include those elements.

Let me know if you want them all. This might need a workaround as we work to API version 2.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking that I could use the Collection ID to be able to navigate to properties associated with each Collection Unit ID. But really the response property that I am interested in is the Collection Date, if one is available that is for a given record. It looks like it does show up when running a script in a browser: http://api.neotomadb.org/v1/dbtables/CollectionUnits?limit=10&offset=20
