ERROR: Download.file function

General
1

Hi everyone, I have an issue in R.
I wanted to download my historical data from Lichess with this link (lichess.org/api/games/user/Nachoeigu), but when I use the download.file, I received an error.

I will show you my code:

url <- "lichess.org/api/games/user/Nachoeigu"

destfile <- "C:/Users/Sol/Downloads/nachoeigu_chess.pgn"

download.file(url, destfile, method = "libcurl")

The error I receive is this:

download.file(url, destfile, method = "libcurl")

trying URL '(the URL)'

Content length 162 bytes

Error in download.file(url, destfile, method = "libcurl") :
cannot open URL '(the URL)'

In addition: Warning message:

In download.file(url, destfile, method = "libcurl") :
URL '(the URL)': status was 'SSL connect error'

OFF: I put "(The URL)" in reffering to the first link I pasted, because RStudio Community doesnt allow me to post a lot of URLs.

Thank you guys for read my issue.
