#'     \code{from / to}

#' }
#'
#' @param exposure Only return boxes with the given exposure ('indoor', 'outdoor', 'mobile')
#' @param model Only return boxes with the given model
#' @param grouptag Only return boxes with the given grouptag
#' @param date Only return boxes that were measuring within ±4 hours of the given time
#' @param from Only return boxes that were measuring later than this time
#' @param to Only return boxes that were measuring earlier than this time
#' @param phenomenon Only return boxes that measured the given phenomenon in the
#'   time interval as specified through \code{date} or \code{from / to}
#' @param endpoint The URL of the openSenseMap API instance
#' @param progress Whether to print download progress information defaults to \code{TRUE}
