At submit an issue, please attached the following information of your rgee session:

• You have the Python API installed (from terminal):

earthengine -h

• You can find the credentials file on your system:

library(rgee)
ee_path <- path.expand("~/.config/earthengine/credentials")
file.exists(ee_path)

• You can run a simple EE command from R:

print(ee$Image('USGS/SRTMGL1_003')$getInfo())

Description

# USDA example
loc <- ee$Geometry$Point(-99.2222, 46.7816)
collection <- ee$ImageCollection('USDA/NAIP/DOQQ')$
  filterBounds(loc)$
  filterDate('2008-01-01', '2020-01-01')$
  filter(ee$Filter$listContains("system:band_names", "N"))

# From ImageCollection to local directory
ee_crs <- collection$first()$projection()$getInfo()$crs
geometry <- collection$first()$geometry(proj = ee_crs)$bounds()
tmp <- tempdir()

## Using drive
# one by once
ic_drive_files_1 <- ee_imagecollection_to_local(
  ic = collection,
  region = geometry,
  scale = 250,
  dsn = file.path(tmp, "drive_")
)

What I Did

I tried to use ee_image_to_drive() which works but then ee_drive_to _local() fails.
