		Encapsulated 'REDCap' Projects for Synchronized Data Pipelines //
		Wraps dozens of 'REDCap' API endpoints into a standardized R6
		object.  Research Electronic Data Capture ('REDCap') is a
		survey and database web application software maintained by
		Vanderbilt University. It has a robust application programming
		interface (API) utilized by several R packages. 'REDCapSync'
		uses 'redcapAPI' and 'REDCapR' behind-the-scenes to retrieve
		all metadata, data, and log details for a project. To minimize
		unnecessary server calls, the interim 'REDCap' log is analyzed
		and used to only update necessary records. Furthermore, the
		user can define custom datasets that save to a directory. Those
		datasets continue to refresh when projects are synced.  Having
		a secure, standardized, API-efficient, project-agnostic R
		object for 'REDCap' projects, streamlines downstream use in
		scripts, functions, and shiny applications.
