You are using a connection to the wise service (for worksheets)
to get the list of documents from the document service.

If you call getDocs() with an connection to writely, I
imagine it will succeed.

So you have a token, but it is for the wrong thing.

The first thing is to learn about debugging in R.
For example,

options(error = recover)

getDocs(sheets.con)

The error occurs and you are presented with a menu prompt that allows you
to select the call frame of interest. There is only one - getDocs().
Enter 1 <Return>.  Now you have an R prompt  that allows you to explore
the call frame.

 objects()

 body()

This is the parsed header of the reply from the GoogleDocs server.

x contains the result of the query and it is an HTML document with the (same)
