Setting up rfigshare with API keys

I have recently installed the rfigshare package. In order to use it, I need to get figshare API keys to to use it properly. The documentation I found so far is obsolete (see here). Does anyone knows the procedure to follow?

From the package README:

The first time you use an rfigshare function, it will ask you to authenticate online. Just log in and click okay to authenticate rfigshare. R will allow you to cache your login credentials so that you won't be asked to authenticate again (even between R sessions), as long as you are using the same working directory in future.

So, just load the package using library("rfigshare") and call any function. You will be automatically prompted to login and store an OAuth credential locally, which will then be automatically used in subsequent function calls.
