<dd><p>Additional arguments to pass to <code><a href="https://rlang.r-lib.org/reference/abort.html" class="external-link">rlang::abort()</a></code>. Useful arguments
include <code>call</code> to provide the call or expression that caused the error, and
<code>body</code> to provide additional context about the error.</p></dd>

<div class="section level2">
<h2 id="details">Details<a class="anchor" aria-label="anchor" href="#details"></a></h2>
<p>Use these in function bindings and in the dplyr methods. Inside of function
bindings, you don't need to provide the <code>call</code> argument, as it will be
automatically filled in with the expression that caused the error in
<code>arrow_eval()</code>. In dplyr methods, you should provide the <code>call</code> argument;
<code><a href="https://rlang.r-lib.org/reference/stack.html" class="external-link">rlang::caller_call()</a></code> often is correct, but you may need to experiment to
find how far up the call stack you need to look.</p>
<p>You may provide additional information in the <code>body</code> argument, a named
character vector. Use <code>i</code> for additional information about the error and <code>&gt;</code>
to indicate potential solutions or workarounds that don't require pulling the
data into R. If you have an <code>arrow_not_supported()</code> error with a <code>&gt;</code>
suggestion, when the error is ultimately raised by <code>try_error_dplyr()</code>,
<code>Call collect() first to pull data into R</code> won't be the only suggestion.</p>
<p>You can still use <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/match.arg.html" class="external-link">match.arg()</a></code> and <code>assert_that()</code> for simple input
validation inside of the function bindings. <code>arrow_eval()</code> will catch their
errors and re-raise them as <code>validation_error</code>.</p>
